#7 What is Possible? Realistic Dreams and the Myth of Scarcity ft Vincent Bevins and Maya Menezes

Dela

What is possible, politically? When are we being too idealistic? What is "realistic," when we talk about social change? Is non-violent revolution possible?

 

In this episode, I speak with journalist Vincent Bevins, author of The Jakarta Method, about the mass killings of suspected communists and ethnic Chinese in Indonesia during the 1960s and other Washington-supported anti-communist efforts around the globe. Next, Maya Menezes, writer of a recent article "Migrant workers are the present and future of low-carbon care work" in Briarpatch magazine, tells me about Canadian dependence on migrant labour, and the insidious myth of "scarcity" undermining our political goals.
