Socialism in the US Can Happen, and Here's What It Can Look Like

What would socialism look like in the United States—the richest country ever known yet 38 million people are hungry? Socialism would use that wealth and our development for the needs of the people, stop endless wars, and crush racism, sexism, and all forms of bigotry. A new book, "Socialist Reconstruction: A Better Future for the United States," demonstrates what this could look like in detail, starting in “the first decade of socialism in the United States." Brian is joined by Dr. Jodi Dean, Professor of Political Science at Hobart and William Smith Colleges & author of several books. She and Brian were part of the collective effort to produce the just-released book “Socialist Reconstruction: A Better Future for the United States."
