In this segment of By Any Means Necessary, hosts Sean Blackmon Jacquie Luqman are joined by Anish Radhakrishnan, a journalist with Peoples Dispatch and NewsClick based out of Delhi, India, to discuss the new signals from the Biden-Harris administration that they’ll support allowing intellectual property protections for coronavirus vaccines to be waived following weeks of public pressure from progressive factions, why the move won’t necessarily be enough to stem the tide of covid cases in India amid the failed response by the far-right government of Narendra Modi, and why the Communist Party of India (Marxist) won the recent slate of elections in the Indian state of Kerala by a landslide.
