- Society & Culture
We know we all got to indulge in some laughs this week but it was also a reminder of the rising fascism we are witnessing globally and the need for popular education and movement building. For our first episode of 2021, we hope we do a bit of popular education as Nashwa sits down to chat with Marxist historian Vijay Prashad. Vijay is currently the director of Tricontinental which we hope people check out! We discuss his newest book Washington Bullets, popular education, the failed coup in Venezuela, Guantanamo Bay, cancel culture, and more.
