About this episode
This week, we critique the climate strike. But, first, some current events.
- Drone strikes hit a Saudi oil field and cut production in half.
- Leaked audio shows Brazil's army is trying to occupy the Amazon.
- The UAW strike rages on.
- The Climate Strike kicked off this week.
What are the limitations of the strike as a model? How do we move from symbolic protest to direct action? What tools/methods are best suited to combating climate change and capitalist hegemony?
