Really interesting piece.
We spoke to Zohran Mamdani’s campaign communications director, Andrew Epstein, about how a disciplined and creative message, mass canvassing, viral videos, and an end run around mainstream media helped the campaign break through.

Those of us in NYC's electorally organized Left have known and learned from Tascha for to close a decade; Z's justly famous field operation introduced her work to a much wider world.

Check out this @thedigradio.bsky.social interview for a great primer on her approach.

Really important shift and as someone swinging away, socialist-ly, for decades it's been heartening to see.

You can also tell who is serious about politics by welcoming this change and working with them, vs those who are in it purely for culturally clique reasons and have no pathway to power.

Essential conversation that I think objectively lays out that there’s an enormous opportunity to reach and organize liberals who are filled with rage and open to socialist politics like never before. Made me extremely optimistic.

Truly wonderful and provocative interview this - stay to the end for an argument about the ways that ecological disasters in the twenty-first century may play the same role that proletarianisation played in the nineteenth - allowing us to "organise across difference" in conditions of emergency.
