LAUSAN /// Struggles & Solidarities from Hong Kong to Black Lives Matter

This episode features Ellie and JN, two members of Lausan, a collective of activists, writers and artists from Hong Kong. Through writing, events and activism, their work articulates the struggle for Hong Kong emancipation in nuanced and complex terms, examining both Chinese and American imperialisms while questioning Hong Kong political state of being as well as activists political positions and tactics. They also discuss collective and global emancipation in a way that allows to imagine internationalist solidarities not only worldwide (Whether in the West or ‘Global South’) but also with people in mainland China.
