This week on STPT, Puja Datta and Danielle Holland discuss oppressive humidity, the pleasures of being alive, and why no one needs 40 choices of vanilla yogurt. We want health care, dammit!

Then, Director of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research, Chief Editor of LeftWord Books, and Chief Correspondent of Globetrotter, Vijay Prashad (he/him) joins the show.

Prashad amplifies the voices of people in struggle centered within a historical framework of laborers, workers, and brave journalists. From corporate moral laundering, the weight of class on the bodies of people, to the fight to make work more meaningful, Prashad and hosts travel the landscape. In remembrance this week of Comrade Anthony Bourdain, we invite you, always, to an ever evolving radicalization.

Prashad is the author of thirty books, his most recent is Washington Bullets: A History of the CIA, Coups, and Assassinations (LeftWord, 2020).
