Weekends: Is Neoliberalism Over in Chile? w/ René Rojas


Listen Later

Every Saturday at 1 PM ET, Ana Kasparian and Nando Vila broadcast live from the Jacobin YouTube channel. Weekends features free-flowing and humorous commentary on current events and political strategy. This is the podcast version of the show from May 29, 2021, with producer Cale filling in for Ana.

René Rojas joins us to discuss how the people of Chile voted for sweeping structural reform and an end to neoliberalism. It’s one of the Left’s biggest victories since the end of Pinochet’s dictatorship but there's still a hard fight ahead. We also dunk on the defense industry lackeys being forced to attend anti-racist trainings.
