Sports and Capitalism
_on ECONOMIC UPDATE with Richard D. Wolff
On this week’s show, Prof. Wolff presents updates on false “trade-off” between illness and economy, going from normal to extraordinary injustice, hypocritical scapegoating of foreigners instead of facing domestic public health and economic failures, and lastly, the tragic neglect of education during the pandemic and economic crash. On the second half of the show, Prof. Wolff is joined by Nation magazine sports editor Dave Zirin.
Each show wraps up with Professor Wolff answering some questions that he receives through his website or on Facebook. Economic Update is in partnership with Truthout.org.
This show was broadcast on July 15, 2020.
