Brian and Prof. Wolff continue a series of discussions about the basics of Marxism — a method for understanding and changing the world used by many of the great revolutionaries of modern history. Today, they discuss the theory of surplus value. Why do Marxists believe that anyone who works for a wage is being stolen from by their boss?  

Richard Wolff is the co-founder of the organization Democracy at Work and the author of many books, the latest being “The Sickness is the System: When Capitalism Fails to Save Us from Pandemics or Itself”. You can check out his work at rdwolff.com

Really From is a podcast of the band Really From hosted by me, Chris Lee-Rodriguez, where I talk to musicians and artists on identity, culture, and inhabiting white spaces in the music scene.

On this episode of the podcast, we have Mateo Garcia from projects like Gauntly and King Being! In our conversation, we talked about growing up in Latin America and Florida, math rock, and merging those two experiences together. Mateo is a longtime friend of ours, and we're so happy to have him on the pod!
