Episode 3 - Decolonize Your Mind (w/ Dr. Sabreena Ghaffar-Siddiqui)

Nearly two years after being forced out of her academic posts for speaking up for Palestine, Dr. Sabreena Ghaffar-Siddiqui remains one of the most fearless voices challenging the empire’s narrative.In this episode of Right of Resistance, Dr. Sabreena joins host Kuros Charney to explain why being pro-Palestine isn’t enough—and why liberation begins with naming the forces that stand in its way. She connects the struggle for Palestine to the global fight against systems of oppression that reach deep into our own institutions and minds.A scholar of criminology and sociology and a leading DEI expert, Dr. Sabreena brings both academic rigor and activist insight to expose the crimes of empire and the social conditioning that lets them endure. Together, we examine how colonial logic continues to shape Western thought—and what it truly means to decolonize your mind.As we confront the ideologies we’ve inherited from centuries of empire, this conversation calls on all of us to unlearn, resist, and imagine freedom beyond the colonial world.Subscribe to Right of Resistance on YouTube for video of this episode and become a member on Patreon to support our work.Find Right of Resistance on X/Twitter (@RightofResist) and Instagram (@RightofResistance).Theme music by Josh Charney This is a public episode.
