Urban Life in Socialist Cities in China (w/ Mimi Zhu)

In this episode, I talk to Mimi Zhu about what China’s cities are like ad what socialism has to do with the development of these cities. We touch on public infrastructure, women’s safety, urban-rural connectivity, public washrooms, public transit, electric vehicles and more.

Mimi Zhu is the host of the Roughly Chinese podcast on Wave Media, which can be found here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCCEbOA5sniwG9Wwryc1hwUX7s_wAUg5Y&si=XcJSBH9gsyzTKHaD

This is a collabrative episode between the International Solidarity Podcast and the Roughly Chinese Podcast. The full episode, including the first half where I was interviewed by Mimi about Canada-China relations, Hong Kong’s colonial legacy, and combatting western propaganda about China, can be found here: https://youtu.be/B-jFQ9h2Hhw?si=ggJNTdBecsNC1JeI
