Summary

Sean is joined by old friend, John Garvey, to introduce our new miniseries: Garveyism!

The series will continue monthly with bonus episodes featuring John talking about his experience in (and against) the New Left, prospects for class power in the current epoch and lessons learned in organizing in NYC over the last fifty years or so.
