Samuel Farber on Trumpism

6 Jan

Hi,

I’m posting a link, https://jacobinmag.com/2021/01/donald-trump-white-working-class-trumpism, to a piece, “Trumpism Will Endure,” by Samuel Farber, which helps me understand the situation now in the United States.

Farber has some formulations, which with I strongly agree and I believe are worth discussing.

One might call it food for thought.

I knew Farber when he lived in Los Angeles and taught at UCLA. I remember him lamenting on his inability to get academically published. Ironically, after moving to New York and teaching there, he has had at least two books published on Russia and Cuba, and numerous shorter pieces published.
