A World to Win is a new podcast from Grace Blakeley and Tribune bringing you a weekly dose of socialist news, theory and action with guests from around the world. On this week’s show, Grace Blakeley is joined by academic, activist and left legend Naomi Klein to discuss the US elections, the case for the Green New Deal, and whether the world is about to face another lesson in the politics of the shock doctrine.
Naomi has words of encouragement but also a warning for activists – the smears that the establishment used against socialist leaders Jeremy Corbyn and Bernie Sanders are “just the smallest taste of how hard they would have fought them if they’d won.”
Thanks to our producer, Conor Gillies, and Tribune’s designer Kevin Zweerink. This podcast is supported by the Lipman-Miliband Trust, but you can help the show by signing up as a patron.
