YouTube Description
as posted by the channelProf. Wolff and I discuss the concept of revolution and its relevance in the 21st century. Some quotes:
Eskow: "Revolution is another one of those terms that... if you say, ‘I want to see revolutionary change,’ people say, ‘You’re not serious, right?’ Even though human history has been changed dramatically by revolutions, we’ve reached a point where we believe it’s mythical, fantastical, impossible."
Wolff: "Revolution has no necessary connection to violence. That linkage is often made by people frightened of revolution, using violence as a reason to oppose it."
Eskow: "Trump and the MAGA movement are revolutionary in their own way, (They) seek radical, regressive transformations. The Koch brothers went from printing ‘lunatic pamphlets’ in 1970 to guiding U.S. political discourse. The right isn’t afraid of thinking big—why is the left?"
Wolff: "When John Brown said, ‘We’re not here to get a better diet for the slave—we’re here to abolish slavery,’ that was revolutionary. Reform addresses symptoms; revolution cures the disease."
