Leftist content creators are sometimes called BreadTube (in the case of radical liberals), LeftTube, or sometimes even Beardtube (for Marxist–Leninists). They mostly create videos for YouTube with many also having blogs, with some having their own websites.
List of YouTube channels
Democracy at Work
"Democracy at Work is a non-profit 501(c)3 that produces media and live events. Our work analyzes capitalism critically as a systemic problem and advocates for democratizing workplaces as part of a systemic solution. We seek a stronger, fuller democracy – in our politics and culture as well as in our economy - based on workers’ equal collaboration and shared leadership inside enterprises and throughout society."
RichardDWolff
A lifelong professor of economics, Richard D. Wolff is a well-known critic of contemporary capitalism and the leading proponent of an alternative economic system based on Worker Self-Directed Enterprises (WSDEs). He is the host of Economic Update, and has been interviewed on several popular television programs that include: Real Time with Bill Maher, Bill Moyers’ Moyers & Company, The Charlie Rose Show, and Up with Chris Hayes. As the founding director of Democracy at Work ([/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection [email protected]]), Wolff's publications that advocate for making the workplace democratic include articles in Truthout.org, The Guardian, Common Dreams, as well as his recent book: Capitalism's Crisis Deepens. The videos on this channel also advocate for WSDEs as a key part of moving forward from the current model of capitalism to a new and better economy.
