In light of the incredible events unfolding this week in Brazil, including the arrest of former President Lula, we reached out to Daniela Mussi to help us get a better understanding of the situation. Dr. Mussi is a post-doctorate researcher at the University of Sao Paulo, the editor of October Magazine, and a contributor to Jacobin.

A note: From time to time we will be covering current events in addition to our regular podcasts on the economy. This podcast is primarily designed for educators and we believe that current events are an important part of any class. We hope that by interviewing experts we might gain insight about political and economic events that are happening in the world right now. We also hope that these interviews can provide some clarity when preparing lessons. Please let us know how we are doing! Thank you.
