Talk event to celebrate the release of "The Birth of Socialist New York"

Radical left-wing democratic socialist Zoran Mamdani will be sworn in as mayor of New York, the capital of global capitalism!

A radical left-wing socialist mayor enthusiastically supported by Gen Z has been born! Will this wave reach Japan too?!

We're pleased to welcome Hiroshi Yahagi, author of "The Birth of Socialist New York," and Lisa Shirasaka, a representative of Gen Z, to Osaka for a lively discussion!
