In Defense of Liberation is a conscientizing program meant to help folks organize around liberation for ALL peoples through political education, experience, stories, histories - failed, and successful - and through active struggle TODAY!
We are here to grow, build, learn, make mistakes, correct them, and learn some more - because we want an END to Settler-Colonialism, Imperialism, and oppression, everywhere.
No one can struggle alone.
This podcast is only an interjection into the conversation, not the end all be all.
Join us in fighting for a new world, an end to this society: Revolution!
Hello everyone, I just want to say thank you to all of those who have listened to the podcast and supported me from the start. This will likely be the last episode of this show - BUT! It is not the end! You will hopefully see me elsewhere in other projects, interviewing on other shows, and maybe soon a program I can once again be proud of.
Here are my final reflections on In Defense of Liberation, my life, the ongoing genocide, the need to fight and support the struggle for liberation all over the globe, and the regret that comes with inaction and fear.
Be well folks, hope to speak soon!
If you want to reach out for whatever reason you can find me by emailing indefenseofliberation@gmail.com
Free Palestine! Free all political prisoners!
All Power to the People!
Onwards and upwards!

Political Economy, Psychology and Propaganda w/ Peter Beattie
Peter Beattie is an Assistant Professor at the Chinese University of Hong Kong who focuses on Political Psychology and Global Political Economy. He is also one-half of the wonderful program BettBeat Media (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVlAELI2OVTx03PvpXoLCWQ) which can be found on YouTube and Substack, with Karim Bettache.
In this episode, me and Peter discuss what the studies of Political Psychology and Political Economy mean, how they help us to understand current global affairs and events, how propaganda and media misinformation dilute many peoples ability to comprehend the current situation we are in, and how understanding these things helps us to struggle for a better tomorrow.
Thank you very much to Peter for coming onto the show, and I look forward to speaking again in the future, hopefully with Karim!
Solidarity to you all!
Glory to the Martyrs!
Long live Resistance!

What the fuck is going on?! An Explanation (Part I of III)
In this episode, I discussed how Capitalism came into being, broadly, and how this process and its contradictions have led us to where we are today. I speak generally about how Feudalism was thrown into the dustbin of history through the collective action of the poor in alliance with the newly forming Capitalist class, and how this class of exploiters took advantage of the people's will to seize power for themselves.
We discuss the movement towards Capitalism, the transition from "Free Market Capitalism" to Imperialism, how Imperialism, monopolies, and crises are a part of Capitalism's natural development, and how this intrinsic logic led us to today.
In the next episode I intend to go deeper into the last 80-100 years to show how history doesn't exactly "repeat itself" but rather, comes in echoes.
All Power to the People!
