 94.1FM  info: kpfa.org/events  \n\n"Richard Wolff's book is the best 
 accessible and reliable treatment we have of what socialism is, was, and 
 should be." - Cornel West \n \nA blend of history, analysis, and theory, 
 Understanding Socialism is an honest and approachable text that knocks down 
 false narratives, confronts failures and the challenges of various 
 socialist experiments throughout history, and offers a path to a new 
 socialism based on workplace democracy. The crises of global capitalism 
 (inequality, instability, unsustainability, and incipient fascism) deepen 
 daily. Consider Trump's and Boris Johnson's desperate extreme-right efforts 
 to be re-elected, and consider that total global debts (of corporations, 
 governments, and households) tripled between 1999 and 2019. Brazil's 
 Bolsonaro blames Leonardo di Caprio for burning the Amazon. Vast crowds in 
 Chile, Lebanon, and France are in the streets demanding basic economic 
 change. These and many other symptoms expose a declining system in mounting 
 troubles.\n\n"In the same accessible style that has made his programs and 
 lectures such a hit, he explains his subject in a way that's not only 
 smart, but makes the rest of us feel smart. It's actionable intelligence 
 for every person." - Laura Flanders\n\n"Lucid, brilliant and uncompromising 
 in his dissection of the capitalist system, he also provides a sane and 
 just socialist alternative to capitalist exploitation, one we must all 
 fight to achieve." - Chris Hedges\n        \nSabrina Jacobs is host and 
 producer of the popular A Rude Awakening, aired on KPFA Radio Monday 
 afternoons. She covers local breaking news as well as global events, 
 informing listeners about the latest social injustices.\n\n$12 advance, $15 
 door.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2020/02/04/18830375.php
