You don't have to live in New York City to know that Zohran Mamdani should absolutely become the city's next mayor. Case in point: During the first show of MJ Lenderman's three-night stand at Brooklyn Steel Monday night, the North Carolina musician invited the state assembly member onstage to give a brief speech about why you should vote for him in the fast-approaching mayoral election.
Mamdani, a Democratic Socialist, has been running a successful campaign focused on making New York more affordable for the working class by making busses and childcare free, creating city-owned grocery stores, freezing rent hikes on stabilized units, and more -- all things that would benefit a lot of indie rock fans!
See a snippet of Mamdani's appearance below, and make sure to vote during the primaries on Tuesday, June 24 if you can.
