We're excited to have Amin Hosuri join us for a multi-episode series examining anti-imperialism and internationalism in the imperial core. We use the response to the Iran's Zhina uprisings to analyze Western anti-imperialism and how we can support workers throughout the world without falling into the imperialist agenda.
For security reasons, Amin provided us with answers to read in the episode rather than speak live.

In this episode Prez and Talia discuss some of Gramsci's main theories, the material conditions of their development and their relevance to today. We cover his theoretical analyses of fascism, bourgeois politics, and the state, and how he was the first Joker.
We are using The Antonio Gramsci Reader: Selected Writings 1916-1935, NYU Press Edition.

In this episode Prez spends way too long talking about history and theory while we deconstruct what it means for land to be used "productively." Zev discusses the relationship between eco-fascism in Israel and America. Our guest Lydia, from the Center of Communist Studies, joins us to talk about the importance of Olive Trees and other claims of "environmental stewardship" in Israel's attempts to exterminate Palestinians. Talia expands on how Israel's eco-fascism is destroying Palestinian land.

In this mini-episode Prez relates Stalin's "Marxism and the National Question" to the Israel and the idea that there can be a single Jewish Nation...or why there fundamentally can't be one. Please excuse any pauses made, they forget words easily
