July 14 is Bastille Day, when the French stormed an armory and took up arms against the monarchy and opened the gates to a prison during the French Revolution. Guards opened fire and many died—but by August 4th, feudalism was abolished. In the midst of widespread killings by ICE, Professor Richard Wolff and Brian Becker discuss repression, revolution, and our current moment.

Professor Richard Wolff is an author & co-founder of the organization Democracy at Work. You can find his work at rdwolff.com.
