Next, John speaks with Ida Susser. She has conducted ethnographic research in the U.S., Southern Africa and Puerto Rico, France and Spain with respect to urban social movements and the urban commons, gender, the global AIDS epidemic and environmental movements. They talk about her upcoming book, THE YELLOW VESTS AND THE BATTLE FOR DEMOCRACY , in which Susser offers the first in-depth examination of a movement that defies easy classification and challenges us to reimagine politics. Then lastly, comedian Keith Price returns to joke with John and listeners on pop culture and the ever imploding world of Trump.
