I learned a lot from talking to them, and by bringing them on 1Dime Radio, I am sure my listeners will learn quite a lot as well. We talk about the state of Mexican politics and provide a historical overview of the context leading up to Mexico’s New Leftist President Claudia Sheinbaum and her predecessor AMLO (Andrés Manuel López Obrador), the former president and leader of the same Center-Left Party (Morena).In the Backroom exclusive segment on Patreon, we talk about the recent elections in Venezuela and the Latin American Left more broadly, as well as how the Mexican government compares to the other left-of-center “pink tide” governments of Latin America, such as Maduro’s Venezuelan government, Lula’s Brazil, Gustavo Pedro in Columbia, and Gabriel Boric in Chile.
