37: A Shell Game

Marxist Critique of the 1619 Project and Shell

The World Socialist Web Site, representing the Trotskyist Fourth International, published a scathing critique of Nicole Hannah-Jones' collaboration with Shell Oil. A reading by "Dame Jennifer" details how Hannah-Jones promotes a "racialist" interpretation of history while ignoring Shell's complicity in the murder of thousands in Nigeria. The hosts praise the high production value of the reading, which was provided by a listener through the "value for value" model.
