Rabab Abdulhadi: The indivisibility of justice from Turtle Island to Palestine

I am releasing this audio out of order because it is an urgent call to action and support! Hala Sabbah, our incredible comrade from the Sameer Project joined me on this urgent livestream to give us a report back about their work, what's happening, and most importantly, what we all need to do to uplift their continued interventions and struggle.

We are baaaaaaaack with our very popular TGT spin-off, TGT-The Musical with Nora, who, yes, we still all love. This time we were joined by our dear comrade Maura Finkelstein, who, let's face it, we also ALL love. As always, a surprise singing comrade appearance is in store. Join us as we talk resistance, how to continue sustaining ourselves for the long struggle, and so much more.

This is a special episode release (out of order, yes!) to commemorate Tufan al-Aqsa, continued and fierce resistance in Palestine, Libnan, Yemen and across the region, as a direct result of the Resistance's Oct. 7, 2023 political intention to disrupt Zionist foreclosure on Palestinian life and life-making.

I was SO excited to have a dear comrade and incredible filmmaker and professor Mtume Gant on the show for the first time! If you don't know him already from his incredible art, his new film, The Hand that Feeds, or from his co-hosting of The Imperial 80s with our comrade Jared Ware of Millennials Are Killing Capitalism, THIS IS YOUR CHANCE! I was so happy to continue our conversation from his podcast, Within Our Gates, linked below. We explored the ways that cinema and cinematic practices recreate a social order intent on stabilizing imperialism and racial capitalism, get into his new film, and his new writing—let me tell you how excited I am to delve into this!! And, maybe, just maybe, psychoanalysis, of course, the good (ahem, Fanon), the bad, and the seriously hideous. Mtume Gant is a Filmmaker/Artist, Political Theorist and Educator. He is the director of several films, most recently The Hand that Feeds and an Assistant Professor of Film at Purchase College. He is the host of Within Our Gates podcast where he looks at cinema and the arts from a materialist perspective, as well as the co-host of The Imperial 80's YouTube series, an anti-imperialist analysis of 80's cinema. He is currently finishing his first book The Three Cinemas, a guide book on how to use the frameworks of Third Cinema as a tool for revolutionary analysis and practice.
