    How Los Angeles Is Fighting Back Against ICE, Trump, and the Far Right

    In this episode, Oden talks to Julia Wallace, member of Left Voice and SEIU 721, and Hector Rivera, a queer, Chicano, socialist educator who writes for Tempest Magazine. They discuss what's going on in Los Angeles, California, which has become a flashpoint in President Trump's war on immigration and attacks on the working class. Hector and Julia also describe the ways that communities have been fighting back, including independent self-organization, and how the struggle against the Far Right is connected to the fight for other democratic rights.  The working class, community organizations, the immigrant rights movement, and other social movements can unite their forces and go even further to definitively push federal agents out of the city and win rights for immigrants — in California, and beyond.   Learn More: - Los Angeles Demands: ICE Out of Our Communities! - 2,000 Troops Withdraw from Los Angeles, but the Fight for Immigrant Rights Isn't Over.

    Fighting Oppression with Working-Class Methods

    In this episode, Oden talks to Sasha Yaropolskaya, a Russian revolutionary trans activist and immigrant in France, about the rightward shift on LGBTQ+ rights. They discuss what it means to be at the end of the era of progressive neoliberalism, and how decades of pursuing a strategy of lesser evilism has led to betrayal for the oppressed. But LGBTQ+ people are not powerless in the face of these attacks. The antidote is working-class unity and revolutionary politics to overcome the Right's divisive tactics. It means building up a working-class party with an internationalist, socialist perspective, able to fight exploitation and all oppression.  Sasha is organized in Revolution Permanente (Left Voice's sister group) and its feminist and LGBT group, Du Pain et Des Roses.  Listen to our previous episode about the fight for trans rights.   Learn More: - A Marxist Take on the Attack on Trans Rights - The Working Class Must Fight for Trans Rights - Nancy Fraser and Counterhegemony - The Antidote to Midterm Despair Is Socialist Feminism Support Left Voice on Patreon    Follow us on social media!

    A Socialist Perspective on Tariffs (and the Perils of Labor Chauvinism)

    In this episode, Oden talks to rank-and-file union member and college professor Jason Koslowski about President Trump's tariffs. They discuss the growing capitalist crises that have led to these policies, and what Trump is hoping to gain  from them — both internationally and domestically. Importantly, Jason explains why labor leaders' support for the tariffs is a form of chauvinism that will only hurt workers in both the U.S. and abroad. The working class paid the price for neoliberalism, and we will also pay the price for protectionism. We cannot fight on the capitalists' terrain. Instead, we need to organize from below to fight for a different system.   Learn More: - Trump's Tariffs Are Causing Chaos on Wall Street, but It's the Working Class Who Will Pay the Price - Notes from a Wall Street Sewer: Tariff Edition - Why Is Shawn Fain and the UAW Leadership Supporting Trump's Trade Policies? - Trump, Engineer of Chaos Support Left Voice on Patreon    Follow us on social media!

    How We Fight for Immigrant Rights: An Interview with Silky Shah

    In this episode, Left Voice editor Samuel Karlin interviews immigrant rights activist and writer Silky Shah about the growing attacks on immigrants. They discuss the root causes of migration, the divisive narrative of “good” and “bad” immigrants, and how both parties have helped build the war on immigrants in recent years. Most importantly, Silky explains how we resist these attacks through unity across movements and countries, and by fighting U.S. militarism and deportations.

    The Revolutionary Socialists Running in the German Federal Elections

    In this episode, Oden talks to Leonie Lieb, a revolutionary socialist running for a seat in the German parliamentary elections as part of the Revolutionary Internationalist Organization (RIO). Leonie explains the rightward shift in German politics, the popularity of the AfD, and Die Linke's failed strategy of defeating the right in elections rather than through class struggle. RIO's candidates are providing an example of an independent socialist political alternative to the bourgeois parties, and fighting to promote the independent self-organization of the working class.  Building a socialist alternative is the way to fight the growing Far Right, whether in Germany, Europe, in the United States, or elsewhere. And it’s the only way to win victory for the working class.  Learn More: - Revolutionary Socialists Are Running in the German Federal Elections - Government Crisis in Germany: 10 Theses on the Political Situation for 2025 - Millions of People in Germany Protest Against the Right — and the Parties Respond by Shifting to the Right - Who Should Socialists Vote for in the Upcoming German Elections? - What Is Class Struggle Unionism?

    How the U.S. Labor Movement Prepares for Trump 2.0

    In this episode, Oden talks to Left Voice editor James Dennis Hoff and union organizer and college professor Jason Koslowski about how labor prepares for the second Trump term. They discuss the kinds of attacks on workers that we can expect from the new administration, and how neither Democrats nor Republicans offer anything to the working class. Most importantly, they explain why unions need to break from their failing approach of constraining themselves to laws that are meant to limit our power as the working class. In the coming period, class struggle will be decisive — and the labor movement needs to be ready to break laws, disobey leaders when we have to, and build power from the bottom up.   Learn More: - Is the Labor Movement Ready for Trump 2.0? - Class Struggle and the Relation of Forces Under Trump 2.0: Three Counter-Tendencies to the Rightward Shift - No, the NLRB Is Not on Our Side and Never Has Been - What Is Class Struggle Unionism?

    Fighting U.S. Imperialism in Mexico

    In this episode, Oden speaks to Jimena Vergara, an editor at Left Voice and former UNAM professor, about Mexico's role in President Trump's hawkish, imperialist agenda. Jimena explains how the U.S.-Mexico relationship is one of subordination,  and how this relationship has profoundly shaped both countries' working classes, economies, and politics. Importantly, we discuss how neither the ruling party, MORENA, nor the Democratic Party can offer true liberation for the U.S. and Mexican working classes. Instead, we need international unity, and a staunchly anti-imperialist, anti-chauvinist leftist perspective.  Learn More: - Trump's "New Golden Age" Is Nationalist, Expansionist, and Anti-rights - Statement: Stop Trump's Anti-immigrant Offensive!
