New episode of Tierney Talks with @paulakahn2020. Paula Graciela Kahn is a congressional candidate currently running to represent California’s 30th District – the San Fernando Valley. Celebrate this “holiday” by listening to a femme against fascism. We talk about the just transition - as in a shift “from an exploitative, extractive, global war economy to a cooperative, regenerative network for local peace economies.” Paula tells me about how volunteering in Tijuana & observing atrocities at the border & in detention centers inspired her to run for office. She calls to shut down the Adelanto Detention Center in San Bernardino & describes her experiences advocating for detained friends in ICE centers. Paula wonders why ICE budgets are increasing when people are dying in ICE facilities, explains the immigration detention & deportation industry & shares how 9/11 & the Iraq War activated ICE. We explore her non-profit Cosmovisiones Ancestrales & the notion of using drugs to support people who are victims of state violence through demobilization, disarmament & reintegration. We discuss the first scholarly article about “cult mushroom” ceremonies, how it fueled psychedelic tourism & the present need to create ecological preserves to protect plant medicine. Paula also imagines the recodification of psychedelics & other indigenous plant medicine by white venture capitalists & Western companies patenting indigenous medicine (a la the legal marijuana industry). We also discuss the deficit of Latinx femmes in Congress & healing as nonlinear. We talk about the housing crisis in the San Fernando Valley & inclusionary zoning. The incumbent candidate, Congressman Brad Sherman, hasn’t done enough in regards to these issues. He’s been in office since 2013 :( She’s sick of trusting strangers to protect her community – please support Paula at the ballot in March! Raise your expectations for who your local rep could be! Send this to someone who votes in the Valley & donate to her campaign via the link in the bio. $5 helps!! More if you’re rich!!! Paula is the most PLUR congressional candidate of all time, promise.

His vision for America includes passing legislation that will provide Medicare for All, tuition-free college, real immigration reform, criminal justice reform and a transition to a green economy run on 100% renewables.
