A World to Win is a podcast from Grace Blakeley and Tribune bringing you a weekly dose of socialist news, theory and action with guests from around the world. This week we have a US election special on A World to Win, as the world’s leading superpower melts down over a cliff-edge presidential contest.
Grace Blakeley is joined by two guests – former Bernie Sanders national press secretary Briahna Joy Gray and Jacobin contributing editor Matt Karp – to discuss the Biden landslide that never was, the deep polarisation in American politics and the way forward for the US Left.
A reminder that you can support our work on the show by becoming a Patron.
Thanks to our producer, Conor Gillies, and Tribune’s designer Kevin Zweerink for their work on this episode. This podcast is supported by the Lipman-Miliband Trust.
