This episode is from our sister podcast Guerrilla History, subscribe to it on your preferred podcast app!

In this absolutely fabulous episode of Guerrilla History, we bring back on the one and only Dr. CBS, Charisse Burden-Stelly! Here, we discuss her outstanding new book Black Scare/Red Scare: Theorizing Capitalist Racism in the United States. This work focuses on how anti-radical repression (especially anti-communist repression) is infused and inseparable with anti-Black racial oppression, and vice versa. This is a critical work by one of the most critical voices in our times, and we think that this conversation is a truly important one for everyone to hear!

Charisse Burden-Stelly is associate professor of African American studies at Wayne State University. She is the coauthor (alongside Gerald Horne) of W.E.B. Du Bois: A Life in American History and the coeditor (alongside Jodi Dean) of Organize, Fight, Win: Black Communist Women’s Political Writing. Join the Black Alliance for Peace or BAP Solidarity Network, keep up with Dr. CBS's work by checking out her website www.charisseburdenstelly.com, and follow her on twitter @blackleftaf.
