Michael Zweig is the emeritus professor of economics and founding director of the Center for Study of Working Class Life at the State University of New York at Stony Brook. He is a lifelong activist and advocate for building a country that quote “treats its workers with respect, opposes war, conserves a healthy natural environment, and defeats the many forms of white supremacy and patriarchy that cause suffering among so many millions of people.” In this episode, originally broadcast in January 2024, Jimmy and Michael discuss his new book: Class, Race and Gender, Challenging the Injuries and Divisions of Capitalism, a comprehensive history and examination of class in the United States and how the working class majority can take a significant role in shaping the direction of the country.
