139, Vijay Prashad and Frank Barat on The Struggle Makes Us Human

On this edition of Free City Radio we hear from Vijay Prashad and Frank Barat @frank-barat co-authors of the book "The Struggle Makes Us Human," which visits points of connection between social movements around the world. https://www.haymarketbooks.org/books/1869-struggle-makes-us-human The book is described this way: "An incisive and inspiring call to look beyond capitalism to chart a road map for a planet ravaged by pandemics, climate crisis, and wars. Prompted by trenchant questions by international solidarity organizer Frank Barat, renowned author and activist Vijay Prashad shows that the path toward hope and liberation lies in looking closely at myriad, under covered struggles being waged all across the world by workers in countries such as India, Kenya, Peru, Tunisia, and Argentina. A marvellously global but grassroots perspective. Prashad also examines pressing topics such as debt cancellation, a wealth tax, austerity, the pandemic, the arms industry, the climate crisis, socialism, working-class social movements and much more."
