The latest episode of Left Out will be released this Thursday 12/21/17. For this episode, we sat down with Christian Parenti to discuss climate change and our current political landscape. Parenti is a sociologist trained at the London School of Economics and is currently an economics professor at John Jay College (CUNY).  

In our interview, we were able to ask Christian what it was like to straddle the realm between academia and journalism; prospects of climate catastrophe; climate change and  justice; and the role of both politics and the state in any real solutions for a way forward.

Links to Christian Parenti's recent work:  Tropic of Chaos: Climate Change and The New Geography of Violence; Anthropocene or Capitalocene?: Nature, History, and the Crisis of Capitalism.
