Episode 4: Hate, Identities, and Representation: hearing from community members
In this episode, our host Soraya Afzali interviews Aly Abdou, a researcher originally from Aswan, Egypt, now based in Hungary, Budapest. As the right-wing politics in Hungary take precedence, it becomes more vital to hear from community member experiences who face political effects in their daily lives. From a bottom-up approach to understanding hate, notions of belonging, ethnicity, and identity are covered in this conversation. Focused on experiences of hate, it delves into challenges, counter-methods, and lessons in preventing hate from an individual and community member perspective. This podcast with Aly reflects on what it takes to navigate identity crisis, representation, and its relevant processes in each of our lives.

Episode 3: The more conservative, the more prejudiced?
In this episode, our host Vladimir Bojarskich interviews Dr. Mark Brandt, Associate Professor of Social and Personality Psychology at Michigan State University. Together, they explore a fundamental question that has intrigued political psychologists for decades: Are conservatives generally more prejudiced than liberals, or do both groups show similar levels of prejudice? Vladimir and Mark delve into the origins of these contrasting perspectives, examine the role of normativity and positionality, and discuss exciting new research led by Mark's PhD students. Whether you're deeply into psychology or just interested in the factors that shape our views, this episode promises to provide valuable insights.
