We are poten­tial­ly enter­ing a peri­od of aus­ter­i­ty in the US at a lev­el not seen since the Great Depres­sion. By mid-April, over 22 mil­lion peo­ple had filed for unem­ploy­ment ben­e­fits. And its unclear whether jobs and busi­ness­es that peo­ple left behind will still be there once stay-at-home orders are lifted.

The world as we knew it seem­ing­ly turned upside down overnight. This strange and abrupt stop to busi­ness as usu­al has shined a light on the cap­i­tal­ist sys­tems that are once again shel­ter­ing big busi­ness with no strings-attached cor­po­rate bailouts while simul­ta­ne­ous­ly leav­ing Amer­i­ca’s work­ing class with­out a func­tion­ing safe­ty net dur­ing these most vul­ner­a­ble times.

On April 9th, Nao­mi Klein, Astra Tay­lor and Keean­ga Yahmaht­ta Tay­lor joined forces to talk about How to Beat Coro­n­avirus Cap­i­tal­ism. Col­lec­tive­ly they lift up strate­gies for help­ing our neigh­bors, defend­ing our rights, and pro­tect­ing the environment.

And, Prof. Kris Peter­son breaks down the finan­cial­iza­tion of pan­demics through World Bank pan­dem­ic bonds.
