ABC Radio: Does Mamdani offer a 'progressive playbook' for the Left? Interview with visiting democratic socialist Bhaskar Sunkara

Visiting democratic socialist Bhaskar Sunkara, founding editor of Jacobin magazine and author of The Socialist Manifesto, spoke with ABC Radio's David Marr about the success that Mamdani has had bringing Trump voters into his voting bloc.

Sunkara is also speaking in Canberra tonight, and at Victoria Trades Hall on Monday 1 June about 'Socialism and Democracy in an Authoritarian Age'.

Do you think Mamdani's success is relevant to the Left here, in dealing with the rise of Hansonism?
