Higher-income New Yorkers just handed the mayoral primary to Zohran Mamdani, a democratic socialist. Ben Kawaller took to the streets of Brooklyn to ask voters what they think of throwing in the towel on capitalism.
Kawaller hits Prospect Heights and East Flatbush for some unfiltered opinions on economic justice, racial equality, and whether young idealists can reshape the city. It’s a candid, often humorous look at how everyday New Yorkers feel about big political change.
