In Caracas, Venezuela, Max Blumenthal has a wide-ranging chat with Danny Shaw, a professor of Latin American and Caribbean studies who has lived in the Dominican Republican, Haiti, and Brazil. They discuss revolutionary anti-imperialist movements, life in poor neighborhoods in the Bronx, Malcolm X’s internationalist legacy, identity politics, differences of whiteness in Latin America, problems with the US left, and humanity’s age-old question: did Jesus Christ do drugs?
