It’s one of the Left’s biggest victories since the end of Pinochet’s dictatorship but there's still a hard fight ahead. We also dunk on the defense industry lackeys being forced to attend anti-racist trainings.</span></p><p><span dir="auto">Read René's essay here: </span><a href="https://catalyst-journal.com/2020/12/chiles-democratic-revolution" rel="nofollow"><span>https://catalyst-journal.com/2020/12/chiles-democratic-revolution</span></a></p><p>Join the Verso book club: <a href="https://www.versobooks.com/bookclub" rel="nofollow">https://www.versobooks.com/bookclub</a></p><p>Music provided by Zonkey: <a href="https://linktr.ee/zonkey" rel="nofollow">https://linktr.ee/zonkey</a></p><p>Patreon: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/jacobinmag" rel="nofollow">https://www.patreon.com/jacobinmag</a></p>
