Today I sit down to talk to
rapper/activist/producer Bloodmoney Perez about the CHOP (Capital
Hill Occupied Protest), an autonomous zone formerly known as
CHAZ(Capital Hill Autonomous Zone). This conversation is
mostly about the significance of the autonomous zone that has been
opened up in Seattle during anti-police protests in the wake of
George Floyd’s murder. We talk about the cultures of mutual
aid, solidarity and self defense that have popped up against
constant attacks from white supremacists, the media and the police
and how this movement is modeling the revolutionary potentials of
our time.
We also talk about his new album,
“Its
About Fucking Time,” the loss of his grandmother to Covid 19,
and a wide ranging discussion about the economic and social state
of affairs in the US.
Basically, are we in a civil war
yet?
