The Labour Files

‘The Labour Files’ is a four-part podcast series, examining a vicious, internal conflict within Britain’s Labour party as members of the party’s bureaucracy sought to portray supporters of their former leader, Jeremy Corbyn, as racist and anti-Semitic.

The investigation examines these questions in the context of the United States today. Is it possible, in such a deeply divided society, for people to view different ‘realities’?
