Climate Justice and Socialist Strategy with Jason W. Moore

Recording available on YouTube

Video available at https://youtu.be/2nZ9xgNn35A

As King underscored in his final months, justice cannot be effectively pursued piece by piece. The “whole society” with and within the web of life must be reinvented, inasmuch as we are “all caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied into a single garment of destiny.”
