It was hard to come up with the title for this episode because I spoke about a lot of different things.

This is in no way a history or in-depth analysis of the history of psychological warfare.

No matter what little time, skills, capacity, capabilities, or experience, you feel you may, or may not have - it’s all helpful in the struggle.

We also believe that until we get things sorted out in our individual, that …

In this episode, I talk about some of the difficulties with remaining positive through a very dehumanizing, morbid, draining, and existential moment that we are all living through today.

Sister Bukhari is one of…

In this episode, I again engaged the idea that revolution and resistance are the most natural characteristics of any living organism, and any human being, who faces oppression and exploitation. If we do not struggle to build a world based on the needs of the masses of people who are illiterate, who go hungry, who are homeless and who are made to su…

In day to day life we’re taught and expected to believe that the Global South is inevitably poor and will remain that way forever - but is that true? What has the global South done for humanity?

In this episode, we talk about how frequent it is conveyed that the most important thing to humankind are these vague notions of human rights.
