124 – Taekwondo and Korean History Explains Everything (Part 3) w/ Jay

This is part 3, and the final part of our conversation with Jay from Red Star Over Asia (@RedStarOverAsia) about his article "When Taekwondo Ruled the World": https://www.midwesternmarx.com/articles/when-taekwondo-ruled-the-world-by-jay  In this episode, we talk about financial imperialism and world systems, Kpop, and fascist body culture. (We used an excerpt from Jacobin's The Dig: "Financial Empire w/ Daniela Gabor & Ndongo Samba Sylla": https://www.thedigradio.com/podcast/financial-empire-w-daniela-gabor-ndongo-samba-sylla/)  We can't continue to produce important episodes like this one without your solidarity.
