This American Left w/ Breht O’Shea (Part 1)
🕑 Added 2025-10-04 21:16:56 +0000 UTCBreht went on How The Red Was Won to talk about the current state of the left, the contradictions of American trade unions, American geopolitics, and much more!
From the original description: You know him. You love him. It's everyone's favorite Breht O'Shea from such fine podcasts as RevLeft Radio, The Red Menace, Shoeless in South Dakota, and more! We talk about what organizing in the USA looks like 2025 - from unions to the socialist orgs, mutual aid, resisting fascism, and raising anti-fascist kids.

Awesome conversation, as always! Solidarity from the North East of England. Breht - other than your beard you look almost exactly as I'd imagined!

I do not think we got to that, or we got distracted! I honestly do not know much about the CPUSA admittedly, at least not presently (only historically). So I genuinely do not have deep thoughts on that org, until further study!

This is what I asked you to do in last year's AMA, a survey of left parties and their prospect for becoming a vanguard party. I think you forgot but thanks to UltraRed for prompting! Btw did I miss it or did you neglect to discuss CPUSA in depth? I have my own thoughts there but I'd be curious to hear the both of yours.
