Antifada's History is a Weapon #2 w/ Matt Christman
Added 2019-01-23 08:12:12 +0000 UTCAP Andy is in Mexico researching Posadism. Jamie is wherever goth-socialists go to do goth-soc things. So Sean KB recorded an ep with fellow history nerd, Matt Christman of The Chapo Trap House, who is similarly tyrannized by the weight of dead generations.
The question: Why, of all advanced capitalist countries, is the United States unique in its historical failure to form a bone-fide Labour/Socialist party organically tied to the union movement as an institutionalized political expression of working class interests? The answers may surprise you.
