Our guest today is Vincent Bevins, who joins us in the studio to talk about his new book, “If We Burn: The Mass Protest Decade And The Missing Revolution”.

Vincent spent years travelling the world from Chile to South Korea, speaking to people who participated in the largest wave of street protest in history, trying to understand why things happened the way they did, and why so many mass movements that began in hope and euphoria ended up changing things for the worse.
