Brian speaks with Prof. Richard Wolff about Marx and the Marxist analysis of the fundamental features of capitalism. Marx's assessment of the laws of capitalism were written more than 150 years ago, but they are spot on in their description of modern day capitalism and explain why millions of people are turning toward socialism with a renewed interest in Marx.

Richard Wolff is the co-founder of the organization Democracy at Work and the author of many books, the latest being "The System is the Sickness: When Capitalism Fails to Save Us from Pandemics or Itself."

Eyewitness Apartheid: Abby & Mike's Month in Palestine [PREVIEW]

It’s been a long time since the sun set on the British Empire and many institutions in British society have changed a great deal. In some ways, the British Army is the exception - a living linkage between imperial great power status and the current post-colonial European nation.
