Mansa is joined by Comrade Mauro from Italy to discuss the recent strikes by Italian unions in defense of the Sumud Flotilla. Following Israel's attack on the flotilla, the unions have now called for a general strike on Friday, 3 October. Mansa and Mauro discuss the potential for these events to reviltalise the workers' movement in Italy, as well as the obstacles to doing so, in the broader context of the Meloni government and the Atlanticism that shackles the Italian left.
