Progressive political scientist MICHAEL PARENTI's unscripted reflections on capitalism, socialism, the role of universities, Cuban plumbers, Russian prostitutes, and his former running mate--and once close friend--Bernie Sanders.
Plus a relevant song by David Rovics.
Recorded October 6, 2015 in Springfield, Illinois. This installment of NWN comprises selections from the Q&A following a talk by Parenti ("Capitalism vs. Reality"). The original recording--which I have edited--is courtesy of the Unifersity of Illinois at Springfield and Dale Lehman/WZRD (via radio4all.net). Many thanks.
