    EP. 946: A BLACK MARXIST CRITIQUE OF BLACK MARXISM ft. AUGUST NIMTZ

    Get August's book here, directly from Monthly Review: https://monthlyreview.org/in-the-public-eye-black.../ Over the last decade, Cedric Robinson’s Black Marxism: The Making of the Black Radical Tradition has deeply shaped debates on the place of race within capitalist societies. Perhaps these questions are now settled, but at one time they were far too controversial: Is race subsumed by class, with the latter the sine qua non of capitalism? Do race and class act independently within modern societies? Or does capitalism inevitably express a deeper racial impetus in the West? August Nimtz defends Marxism from Robinson’s accusations of myopia on matters of race, suggesting that, in charging Marx and Engels with Eurocentrism, he either failed to understand, or misrepresented, their work—and that, in effect, many thinkers inspired by Black Marxism blatantly misrepresented Marxist texts Check out our new bi-weekly series, "The Crisis Papers" here: https://www.patreon.com/bitterlakepresents/shop READ THE WEEKLY TIR NEWSLETTER HERE: https://www.patreon.com/collection/1853497 Thank you guys again for taking the time to check this out.

    Get Shawn's book here: https://www.amazon.com/American-Socialist.../dp/1668056739 Before Bernie Sanders, before Zohran Mamdani, America’s favorite socialist was Eugene Debs. In 1912, some 1,200 Socialists held elected office across the United States. Wisconsin had a Socialist congressman in Washington, and ministers in Oklahoma preached the gospel of “Christian socialism” at revival-style gatherings come summertime. The leader of this vibrant movement? One Eugene V. Debs—part working-class agitator, part radical prophet, a man who made it feel like being an American and a socialist was the most natural thing in the world.

    EP. 943: NAZI EUGENICS, EUTHANASIA AND PSYCHIATRY'S TROUBLED HISTORY ft. SUSANNE ANTONETTA

    Get Susanne's book here: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/.../the-devils-castle.../ In The Devil’s Castle, Susanne Paola Antonetta weaves a haunting narrative that confronts the darkest chapters of psychiatric history while offering a bold vision for the future of mental health care. In 1939, the eugenics movement growing throughout the West did its worst in Nazi Germany. Through the Aktion T4 euthanasia program, five asylums and an abandoned jail were transformed into gas chambers. Tens of thousands of lives—predominantly adults with neuropsychiatric conditions—were extinguished in those structures, ultimately paving the way for the horrors of the Holocaust.

    EP. 937: THROUGH THE BONEYARD OF THE CIA'S WAR ON DRUGS ft. BILL CONROY

    Get Bill's book here:https://a.co/d/02qIacSw The Great Pretense: A Tour Through the Boneyards of the CIA’ s War for Drugs offers readers a journey to the boneyards of the CIA's “ war for drugs” in Latin America and beyond, with all of its complexities and moral dilemmas. Conroy’ s book, part memoir and part exposé and thriller, is based on Conroy’ s lived experience over decades of reporting on national security and the illegal drug trade. It emphasizes the vital role of authentic journalism in a landscape marked with manipulation and deceit by powerful entities, such as the CIA. The book highlights the challenges of investigating the intricate relationship between intelligence operations, law enforcers and narco-traffickers. The book also reveals, with evidence, how the CIA operates in the drug war — against other U.S. agencies, or with them, and in ignoring or even enabling cartel drug trafficking — all in pursuit of intelligence-gathering and other opaque national security goals. Conroy’ s 40-year journalism career has focused heavily on investigative reporting — as an editor-in-chief, managing editor and reporter.
