On December 19, 2020, socialist intellectual and friend of the show Leo Panitch passed away from COVID-19. Today, we honor his legacy by speaking with his longtime friend and colleague Sam Gindin, a Canadian scholar and activist who co-authored The Socialist Challenge Today and other volumes with Panitch.

Sam and host Esty Dinur reflect on the past forty-eight hours (Jan 6-7) in American politics – how we got here, what it means for the future – and how we can build on Leo Panitch’s work.
