2025 Ellen Meiksins Wood Lecturer Grace Blakeley sits down with Luke Savage in Toronto, Canada, for a conversation on the failures of neoliberal capitalism, the age of individualism it has produced, and what the left must do if it is to win the working-class.
Blakeley and Savage examine how the far-right have taken advantage of the gaps and inequities made under individualism and why organizing is needed to fight for working-class democratic power.
