189/ Doikayt ('Hereness') Now! w/ Molly Crabapple

For episode 189 of The Fire These Times, Elia Ayoub is joined by friend of the pod Molly Crabapple to talk about the Jewish Labor Bund and how their concept of Doikayt (‘Hereness’) can help us build a better world than the hellscape being proposed by techno-dystopianism and end-time fascism. Molly’s upcoming book is called “here where we live is our country: the story of the jewish labor bund.” Speaking of end-time fascism, Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor will be joining Elia and Dana El Kurd on TFTT to talk about their essay “The rise of end times fascism.” Support: You can support my work with⁠ ⁠a one-off or monthly donation⁠⁠ on Ko-fiMasterclass on Modern Lebanon:⁠ ⁠Registration is now open⁠⁠Newsletter: Subscribe to⁠ ⁠Hauntologies⁠⁠Social Media: I’m on⁠ ⁠Bluesky⁠⁠,⁠ ⁠Instagram⁠⁠ and⁠ ⁠Mastodon⁠⁠Contact: To collaborate, reach out on ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠The Fire These TimesSocial Media: TFTT is on⁠ Bluesky⁠ and⁠ Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Transcription: You can help⁠ ⁠Antidote Zine⁠⁠ transcribe TFTT episodes⁠ here⁠Website: All episodes are archived ⁠on the website⁠From The PeripheryTFTT is a proud member of ⁠⁠From The Periphery Media Collective⁠⁠⁠, which you can support⁠ on Patreon⁠ and follow on⁠ Bluesky⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠ Instagram⁠.Check out other project wherever you get your podcasts:⁠ ⁠⁠Politically Depressed⁠⁠⁠Syria: The Inconvenient Revolution⁠ ⁠From The Periphery Podcast⁠ ⁠The Mutual Aid Podcast⁠⁠For more:Molly has a website and newsletterCredits:Elia Ayoub (host, producer, sound editor, episode design), ⁠⁠Rap and Revenge⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Music), ⁠⁠Wenyi Geng⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (TFTT theme design), ⁠⁠Hisham Rifai⁠⁠⁠⁠ (FTP theme design) and ⁠⁠Molly Crabapple⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (FTP team profile pics).
