Super! So pleased to have this interview with Prof. Musto, and I should add the interviewer did a great job in asking excellent questions and letting Prof. Musto give extensive replies without interrupting.
So: this Mitch Jeserich guy is trying to read into Marx the now fashionable themes like ecology (ie how Capitalism destroys the environment) and racism. He finds these themes looking hard at the wordings of this or that phrase. He hopes for a further revival of the interest for Marx by forcing it into the new, fashionable mold ... Well, OK, why not... It is his right to try... I only wish that Marx's target society, the one he dreamt about, will give people the same right to try...
