This week we spoke to Robert LeVertis Bell, a candidate for the Democratic nomination in House District 43. He’s a Democratic Socialist who has a long history of social activism in Louisville. We talked to him about why he’s running, his role as a “movement candidate,” and the role he would play in Frankfort.

The legislature is finally done for the year, and Robert and Jazmin spoke about the last two days after the veto session, and the inevitable barrage of lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of the new laws.
