Dead Pundits Society

Joining me this week to lay down some diss tracks concerning free speech and left tactics is Christian Parenti. We discuss his latest article in Jacobin Magazine, as well as an older article he co-authored with Doug Henwood and Liza Featherstone on "Activistism". We take on the "No Platform" tactic, discuss the leftwing origins of free speech, and talk about how to develop the kind of material power needed to change the world. Don't miss it. https://www.jacobinmag.com/2017/04/free-speech-charles-murray-campus-protest/ Here is the article on "Activistism" that we discuss near the end: http://www.leftbusinessobserver.com/Action.html If you like the show, please consider joining my Patreon: www.Patreon.com/deadpundits
