BONUS: A Window To Not F*ck Up with Naomi Klein
Description
“Left to their own devices, this will be a one-term administration.” Naomi Klein, author, journalist and proof that you SHOULD meet your heroes, pulls no punches when speaking about the Biden Administration. She joined Francesca and Nato Green for a bonus episode to discuss climate change and capitalism’s failures from Hurricane Katrina, to Puerto Rico and Hurricane Maria, and now to the snowstorms in Texas. It’s high time for a Green New Deal, if we can combat the red-baiting head on. Klein also discusses her latest article for the Intercept all about how Facebook and Google are profiting off India's repression of farmers and climate activists, creating a deeply scary situation for religious minorities there. Also, please 'acute agitate' this podcast and give it five stars on Apple podcasts.
