In this episode we discuss Julius S. Scott's 'The Common Wind: Afro-American Currents in the Age of the Haitian Revolution,' an extraordinary text which began life as a PhD thesis in the 1980s, and has gained an almost cult reputation amongst scholars of transnational radical history until it's publication with Verso in 2018.
You can watch a video featuring Scott, Robin Kelley, Peter Linebaugh and Marcus Rediker celebrating the launch of the book in 2018 at the University of Pittsburgh here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlSXrxFXSsw
