EQUAL TIME RADIO with Traven is where Vermonters, and indeed politically conscious people everywhere, talk about issues ignored by the corporate media—workers organizing at the workplace, our movements meeting the challenge of the climate crisis, nurses working for health care as a human right, students speaking out about their education, farmers struggling against corporate agribusiness, progressives fighting for political revolution, a new generation organizing for democratic socialism, and more.
