  • The Uncommitted with DNC Delegate June Rose
    Aug 30 2024

    Can Uncommitted Democrat delegates save Palestinian lives and US elections?


    We speak with June Rose, the Chief of Staff for the Providence City Council and Rhode Island’s ‘uncommitted’ delegate who's just returning from their #NotAnotherBomb and #LetPalestineSpeak actions at the Democratic National Convention.

    June Rose has a long history helping flip races to favor Democrats and joins us to talk about their role in the Uncommitted Movement as a former Orthodox Jew, who studied in Israel and took action into their own hands at religious school to make sure they meet Palestinians. They speak about how that changed their life, how they began in this movement, and what's next for getting Kamala Harris, Joe Biden and the Democrats to finally act on Gaza.


    Rose is also one of only two trans people in the country to have managed a statewide political campaign and is the highest ranking transgender staffer in Rhode Island history.


    We also talk about the return to campuses, and how universities like NYU have snuck in new regulations conflating Judaism with Zionism, and declaring people who hold Zionist ideology as a "protected class" along historically marginalized people, as well as hostile architecture instituted across schools to prevent college students from practicing free speech about Gaza and Palestinians.
