Powerful and pertinent message – who is listening?

Naomi Klein is a Canadian author and social activist known for her political analyses and criticism of corporate globalization from a democratic socialist perspective.

She is well worth listening to – listen out for her passing reference to the fracking blight we are fighting to avoid here in South Wales. She provides insight into what motivates these companies to continue these reckless endeavours.

(Can’t say I approve of the film tagged on (NOT by Naomi) at the end though – Coca Cola as a champion of women’s liberation Africa is a little rich!)
