Jacques and Jennifer continue their discussion from two programs ago about five intersecting predicaments facing us:
(1) the COVID-19 pandemic,
(2) late capitalism and its gross and exponentially growing inequality and destructiveness,
(3) racism and how ‘whites’ both socially and culturally seem incapable to acknowledge their racism,
(4) the onslaughts our ‘civilisation’ inflicts on our planet’s ecology, and
(5) the careless and wilful promotion of war. They float some ideas about the directions we need to take to avert catastrophe.
