Ep144: Commoners All! w/ Peter Linebaugh
Added 2021-05-26 10:00:04 +0000 UTCSean and Andy are honored to sit down with Marxist historian of the Transatlantic World and Anglo-Irish labor history, Peter Linebaugh, to discuss his 2019 book, "Red Round Globe Hot Burning: A Tale at the Crossroads of Commons and Closure, of Love and Terror, of Race and Class, and of Kate and Ned Despard".
What is revolutionary love? How were the commons enclosed? What's the connection between capital and the anthropocene? How can the racialization of proletarians be overcome? How do we wrest back the commons for ourselves?
This was a great conversation and we're really proud to present this episode.
Outro: Robert Johnson - Crossroads Blues

linebaugh's style is definitely "all over the place" in the best way. this makes it kind of hard to discuss in podcast format--but the book is very clear and rewarding
