Hyperimperialism, the Fall of Syria & Capitalist Gangsters w/ Vijay Prashad

In this episode of MintCast, host Manar Adley speaks with historian, journalist, and author Vijay Prashad about the turmoil shaping 2025. From California’s wildfires and the failures of capitalism to regime change in Syria, the weakening of Palestinian resistance, and rising U.S.-China tensions, this conversation unpacks the pressing global crises and their deeper implications. Prashad also discusses his latest book, Cuba: Reflections on 70 Years of Revolution and Struggle (co-written with Noam Chomsky), the resilience of Cuba under U.S. sanctions, and lessons for the Global South.
