0:15.7	Welcome to the Dig, a podcast from Jacobin magazine. My name is Daniel Denver and I'm broadcasting from Providence, Rhode Island. This episode is a special dig extra. It's audio from a recent Zoom forum that I
0:24.8	moderated with leading defund police activists from all across the country.
0:29.1	I moderated the discussion in my capacity as co-chair of the new organization
0:35.8	Reclaim R.I.
0:37.6	Which I co-founded with a bunch of core volunteer leaders from Rhode Island's Bernie 2020 campaign.
0:45.0	Our goal is to politically and economically transform our diverse working class and rather tiny state.
0:52.0	This discussion, which has defund police organizers who are just incredibly talented from all over the place,
1:00.0	was really stellar, and I think it's a great resource for all of you fighting to
1:04.9	defund the police wherever you live. If you do happen to live in Rhode Island and
1:09.6	want to support our work for a people's budget here, both at the state and city level, I will
1:15.5	include a link to our petition in the show notes.
1:20.3	Briefly, before we get started, two things.
1:23.0	First, antibody, our first attempt to do socialist this American life, has come to an end, for now.
1:32.0	Stories from day lab laborers in prison and Amazon warehouse workers in
1:36.5	New York City hospitals on Kropotkin and mutual aid and D and D and a lot more. I am really proud of what we put together.
1:45.8	Please do take a listen if you haven't yet and please do share it with anyone who might
1:50.8	like it.
1:51.8	We'll likely do more of this sort of narrative stuff
1:55.7	in the future depending on time and funding. It might even still be called
2:00.0	antibody. Anyhow, I'm really grateful to everyone who supports us on
2:04.1	Petri and for making antibody possible. We could not have done it without
2:08.4	your contributions. I will link to antibody in the show notes in case you missed it.
