Black Agenda Radio · "Abundance" and the Democrats' Neo-Liberalism

The new watchword for liberal democrats is “abundance.” Abundance is the title of a book written by Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson, which purports to be a guide for Democratic Party success. But this concept of abundance and other policies allegedly different from those of republicans are sleights of hand that are synonymous with neo-liberalism and climate destruction. We’re joined by Anthony Rogers-Wright, a Black Agenda Report contributor and a climate/environmental liberation and racial justice advocate, writer, and policy expert. He is an active member of the Black Alliance for Peace and the Movement for Black Lives. He hosts the radio program, “Full Spectrum with Anthony Rogers-Wright” on WPFW.
