Welcome; (1) that snippet is part of a longer video if you are intetested in the fuller context (2) Prashad helps run the Tricontinental Institute for Social Research for various articles for deeper dives (3) if you are looking for various short clips to get your head around a topic to begin with it may be worthwhile searching his name + said topic on youtube /equivalent (eg is China capitalist, imperialism, climate change, Russia etc). However, I would caution that these are just starting points and you should consider more widespread reading when you get the chance. There is no single source but if one had to choose I would point to prolewiki and redsails.org (ok that's two).
i know vijay and tricontinental quite well! my issue right now is more of a "how do i explain this to someone else" rather than how to dive deeper (i am afraid i am too deep), so short clips with good examples of rhetoric are very helpful.
If that's the case here's another one from Prashad:
