Vijay Prashad above
dramatically describes the immediacy of global catastrophes and the centrality
of our tasks in 2025.
And earlier (2024) he posted an important
statement ( see below) that addresses not only the wasteful military system but its links to
the IMF and global debt, and the growing gap between the Global North and
South. He also addresses the role that “intellectuals” can play in alerting the
world to the realities of the connections between war, mis- and
under-education, starvation, and global inequality and the international
institutions that have been established to address these issues. Prashad’s
portrait also implies why those who rise up against the imperial and war system
may do so in ways we find uncomfortable.
While we mobilize to
influence policy on these issues, we should bring this richer understanding of
“why” to activists and politicians and act on our knowledge remembering the old
adage: Educate, Agitate, and Organize.
