#10 Free Palestine. Featuring Tara Alami, Rawan Nabil, Dalia Awad, and Ben Dickey
All eyes are on occupied Palestine. The zionist entity has been expelling Palestinians from their lands for a century, and have been perpetrating an outright genocide for a half a year now, supplied by western weapons and western excuses. While protestors gather in the tens of thousands in Toronto, the Canadian media industry works overtime to vilify them, and police conduct pre-dawn raids on the homes of those who stand against prominent local zionists.
In this episode, my guests and I discuss the history of zionism, the way mainstream media outlets try to obscure the material reality of colonization, “purplewashing” tactics, and how you can help fight for Palestine.

Henry & Aamer vs The Entirety of Pop Culture
HAPPY NEW YEAR
*PREVIOUSLY PATRON-ONLY CONTENT*
I had a conversation with my friend Aamer of Das Criminal Podcast (https://directory.libsyn.com/shows/view/id/dascriminal). We discussed the good art vs good politics, video games as propaganda, and whether art can be a substitution for political theory (no). I recorded and edited said discussion for you to enjoy!

Socialist projects of the 20th century were the target of murderous campaigns originating in the global north. Hundreds of thousands of people were killed... but they aren't the ones getting a monument in Ottawa.
