Welcome to Topple Uncaged meets… Lisa Mckenzie.

Topple meets Mckenzie

She is a working class author, academic and ethnographer. Her book Getting By, a study of her own estate St Ann’s in Nottingham, was a groundbreaking work that cemented her status as one of the pivotal thinkers of the decade. So, Canary journalist and broadcaster Steve Topple caught up with McKenzie for the Topple Uncaged podcast. Here you can listen to the full interview, where the pair discuss immigration, Brexit, class, housing, Windrush, our failing capitalist system and more.

Enjoy!

We need your help ...

The coronavirus pandemic is changing our world, fast. And we will do all we can to keep bringing you news and analysis throughout. But we are worried about maintaining enough income to pay our staff and minimal overheads.

Now, more than ever, we need a vibrant, independent media that holds the government to account and calls it out when it puts vested economic interests above human lives. We need a media that shows solidarity with the people most affected by the crisis – and one that can help to build a world based on collaboration and compassion.

We have been fighting against an establishment that is trying to shut us down. And like most independent media, we don’t have the deep pockets of investors to call on to bail us out.

Can you help by chipping in a few pounds each month?
