Trump's win: the status quo has failed

In this recording from a recent meeting of Socialist Appeal supporters, Alan Woods - editor of In Defence of Marxism - discusses the sharp turning point in the world situation marked by the election of Donald Trump in the US elections.
As Alan explains, Trump's victory is a symptom of the fundamental breakdown in the global capitalist system. The status quo has failed, and it is the task of the Marxists to show the way forward along the lines of international socialist revolution.

"I have to be careful of the words I use [about Clinton] or I'll get in trouble"
Would it cross your mind to call Obama a n*****, bourgeois as he is? I'd say that would really alienate black workers. Much as I enjoy watching a lot of the IMT's videos, examine this instinct to use slurs, because it's reactionary. I'm starting to think there's a deep inconsistency in the IMT's analysis of liberation movements when it comes to women.

The bourgeoisie has had a shock and doesn't have a plan, we all know what happens next. Fascism.
