The Hoodoisie

The Hoodoisie is Chicago’s only radical live and live-streamed news and talk show, spotlighting radical activists and activism from across the hemispheric Americas. Each show is a mix of party activism, popular education and subversive entertainment and like the Daily Show if it was hijacked by radical POC’s and they brought along a deejay and a bar. Over 100 audience members come out to every show, largely from Chicago’s activist and artist communities and the city’s working-class communities and communities of color. Founded in 2017, The Hoodoisie makes politics accessible and allows people to participate in the discourse that shapes their lives but from which they’re often excluded and has become a cornerstone of radical discourse in Chicago. The collective also stages radical platform interventions, like the People’s Resolution.
