Covid and the global war on the poor: a critique from the left

Historian Toby Green and journalist Thomas Fazi join The Grayzone’s Max Blumenthal to discuss their new book, “Covid and the global war on the poor: a critique from the left,“ which surveys the devastating impact of lockdowns and school closures on the planet’s most vulnerable populations, from sub-Saharan Africa to major US and European metropolitan areas. Green and Fazi offer a searing analysis of the organized Western left’s uncritical support for policies that enriched Big Tech and the pharmaceutical industry at the expense of the global poor. Fazi also discusses his recent participation in the Unherd Debates on the Ukraine proxy war, where he argued alongside Peter Hitches against continued Western military aid for Kiev. ||| The Grayzone ||| Find more reporting at Support our original journalism at Patreon: Facebook: Twitter:
