Episode 188: “The Future is Black & Red” ft. Michael Löwy and David Campbell

This week, I sat down with Michael Löwy and David Campbell to talk about the book Michael co-wrote and David recently translated into English, Revolutionary Affinities: Toward a Marxist Anarchist Solidarity. The three of us got into a lovely dialogue about the recent uprisings in France against the neoliberal Macron regime, as well as the painstaking labor David undertook of translating this book into English by hand. Then, we dive into the book and talk about the principled points of solidarity and the potential areas of conflict between Anarchists and Marxists before contemplating what these struggles mean for today.

Note: 

A minor correction. David mentioned the anti-basin protest was at “Sainte Solite.” It’s actually Sainte Soline.
