E250: La CUNY Lucha Continúa w/ Carolyn Hietter & Ian J. Seda-Irizarry
Sean KB welcomes to the show two teachers (Carolyn Hietter and Ian Seda) from the John Jay College Department of Economics (Marxist) to discuss their program and the goings-on at the City University of New York since the beginning of the atrocities in Gaza: the McCarthyite administration's war on free speech, the massive shifts within the bourgeois university over preceding decades which led to it, and how John Jay's Econ department is pushing in another direction.
We ask the essential question: What might a working class education by and for the working class might look like? Find out for yourself and apply to the CUNY if you are looking for a radical education.
