Robert Wilson is a U.S.-born philosopher who has lived in Brazil for many years. He is the author of “The Football Manifesto and Club Handbook: Bringing the Beautiful Game to the People and Making the USA #1 in the World.” As the World Cup of football, soccer to people in the US, is slated to be held here in 2026, he joins us from Rio de Janeiro to discuss his ideas on sports as a tool for organizing and political education.
