Lessons from Martin Sostre's Continuous Struggle

In this episode of the podcast, I speak with Garrett Felber, author of A Continuous Struggle: The Revolutionary Life of Martin Sostre. We begin with Garrett giving a brief overview of Sostre's revolutionary work and thinking, and then explore the nature of Sostre's political education inside and outside of carceral spaces. This includes a discussion of who Sostre himself learned from and his commitment to workingwith youth in the local communities he was a part of. Sostre demonstrates that nobody learns by themselves, even when in solitary. We end by thinking about the implications of Sostre's praxis for teaching and learning during these fraught times. You can find more information about Sostre's case and updates about advocacy efforts to clear his name at martinsostre.com.
