CURRENT ISSUE: FEBRUARY 2012

February 2012

Inside the Occupy Movement

Arun Gupta and Michelle Fawcett | We visited nearly thirty occupations in twenty states in two months.

A Taste of Freedom

Breanna Lembitz | I spent seven weeks in Zuccotti Park, and here is what I got.

Anniversary Blues

Edwidge Danticat | Two years ago in Haiti, the Earth opened, buildings collapsed, and people died—300,000 to be precise. Anniversaries hurt. They brutalize the body. They pummel the spirit.

Progressive Matt

The Koch Brothers Conspire to Buy the White House

Welcome to the Radio Offerings of The Progressive

We produce two things.

First, we offer a weekly half-hour interview show called "Progressive Radio," hosted by Matthew Rothschild, the editor of The Progressive.

And second, Rothschild does a short commentary every weekday, called "Progressive Point of View,” which runs approximately 90 seconds.

Both are free to radio stations and listeners.
