COVID19 and the crisis capitalism creates in normal times

May 05, 2020

Silvia Federici

Silvia Federici is a feminist activist and scholar whose writing and political activities contribute to a broad Autonomist tradition. With intellectual generosity, sharp, nonconformist thought, and searing critiques of capitalist society, her work has inspired social activists associated with the rise of the alter-globalization movement.

Host Sylvia Richardson speaks to Silvia about the COVID19 crisis, how capitalism is a system in constant crisis and how they will  use COVID to further consolidate wealth in society, how we don't want to return to what is considered normal, how communities have come together to face this crisis and how we need  community to come together after COVID to address the wide spread job losses and social despair.
