Prefigurative Politics & Building What We Need Now W/ Organic Filament Network

Originally hosted by the Organic Filaments Network, this conversation with Jordan from The Dugout traces the roots of political commitment and collective endurance. From environmental organizing post-2020 to lessons drawn from the Zapatistas, Rojava, and Black anarchist tradition, this dialogue is a deep dive into memory, infrastructure, and the emotional and strategic realities of building resistance.Topics include: Gaza solidarity, tech in organizing, political alienation, labor as survival, the betrayal of electoral politics, and what it means to sustain community under siege. A reflection on rage, love, and clarity in the long war for liberation.Follow Organic Filament NetworkYoutubeSpotifyInstagram - @organicfilamentsnetwork01:24 Welcome to the Organic Filaments Network 03:27 Entering organizing through environmental work post 2020 05:56 Political memory and the archive as grounding 08:22 Looking to Zapatistas MST Soviets for strategic models 11:08 Those are my comrades dying — solidarity and Gaza 13:18 Strategy security culture and organizing behind enemy lines 14:54 Tech Bluetooth and tactical communication 17:21 Limits of Afro pessimism and what people actually live 19:35 Building Judas and the Black Messiah under pressure 21:43 What we lose when protest replaces infrastructure23:48 Anarchist labor and economic tradition as base for survival 24:36 Occupations communes and federated alternatives 28:10 Rojava militancy and organizing before the war comes 30:03 Caste debt and racial capitalism as layered dispossession31:43 Political alienation and clarity in survival work 34:01 Neighborhood defense as long term organizing 35:34 Rage love and the method of building36:01 What sustains organizers in moments of isolation37:00 Zoran Mamdani electoral contradiction and betrayal37:25 Post Occupy politics and movement capture 44:24 Why The Dugout was created memory clarity education 47:36 Internationalism diaspora and anti colonial solidarity 51:36 Podcast as political diary and anarchist experiment52:35 Healing grief and the political necessity of stepping back 54:44 Martyrdom and memory across generations59:22 Authoritarians out organizing us and what to do about it 1:03:25 The next phase of The Dugout archives modules infrastructure—---------------------------------------------Stay connected with The Dugout!
