Intellectual historian A.J.A. Woods, author of, “The Cultural Marxism Conspiracy: Why the Right Blames the Frankfurt School for the Decline of the West" (Verso Books) discusses their book on the day it is published. A.J.A.’s writings on conspiracy theories and reactionary politics have been translated into four languages and appeared in Open Democracy, Patterns of Prejudice, and Marx & Philosophy Review of Books. Check out A.J.A.'s book here: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/804696/the-cultural-marxism-conspiracy-by-aja-woods/ "Rotten History" from Renaldo Migaldi follows the interview. After all that, we receive an update from Loyola University Chicago SEIU 73 Faculty Forward co-chair Paige Warren about next steps bargaining for a fair contract for non-tenture-track faculty with a corporatized university after a successful strike authorization vote.
