This B-Side features an extended chat with Matt Huber, associate professor of geography at Syracuse University. We discuss the history of climate change politics and the promises, pitfalls, and demands of a Green New Deal as recently outlined by Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, among others. Matt's latest writings on the topic: -"Building a 'Green New Deal': Lessons From the Original New Deal," https://www.versobooks.com/blogs/4131-building-a-green-new-deal-lessons-from-the-original-new-deal -"Five Principles of a Socialist Climate Politics," https://www.the-trouble.com/content/2018/8/16/five-principals-of-a-socialist-climate-politics?fbclid=IwAR3FS7j6axvSAzKCW-UxAI9-P9RabkScmi76SL2yVAoS9ox9ZQbo3ktAX0U *** This B-Side has been unlocked thanks to the generosity of our patrons.
