EP. 799: CHRONICLES OF DESPAIR IN AN ALABAMA PRISON ft. MATTHEW WHALAN

Oct 9, 2025

Oct 9, 2025

1hr 3 min

Get Matthew's Book Here: https://leftwingbooks.net/en-us/products/bullock-chronicles-of-deprivation-and-despair-in-an-american-prison
 
Bullock: Chronicles of Deprivation and Despair in an American Prison is not simply a book about conditions inside one of Alabama’s most notorious prisons—it is a collective testimony, a record of survival and resistance, and a call to confront the prison system as an instrument of state violence. Through a series of in-depth interviews with prisoners at Bullock Correctional Facility, journalist and writer Matthew Vernon Whalan brings forward the voices of people most often silenced: those who have lived, suffered, and endured inside the largest prison system in the world today.

EP. 798: WHAT'S LEFT: AVOIDING PLANETARY CRISIS ft. MALCOLM HARRIS & ANDREW HARTMAN

Oct 6, 2025

Oct 6, 2025

1hr 12 min

Get Malcolm's Book here: https://www.amazon.com.mx/Whats-Left-Through-Planetary-Crisis/dp/0316577413

Get Andrew's book here: https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/K/bo245100866.html

In What's Left , Malcolm Harris cuts through the noise and gets real about our remaining options for saving the world. Just as humans have caused climate change, we hold the power to avert a climate apocalypse, but that will only happen through collective political action. Harris outlines the three strategies--progressive, socialist, and revolutionary--that have any chance of succeeding, while also revealing that none of them can succeed on their own.

What's Left shows how we must combine them into a single pathway: a meta-strategy, one that will ensure we can move forward together rather than squabbling over potential solutions while the world burns.
