Naomi Klein on Anti-Union Bills, Climate Justice, and the 'Shock Doctrine' Done American-Style


Author and activist, Naomi Klein, appeared on Democracy Now! to discuss with Amy Goodman the recent anti-union legislation being pushed in state capitols across the US.

The hour-long interview also touches on climate activist Tim DeChristopher and the broader climate justice movement and how, taken together, these issues acknowledge the need for a re-energized (and mobilized) progressive movement in the United States...one that can push back against corporate control and center-right politics.
