SNV Special Interview: A Short History Of Settler Colonialism

Special Interview Recorded (10/9/2024) and Uploaded (10/10/2024) In this Special I speak with Anti-war Activist and Labor Organizer Anthony who recently MC'd a talk with author Nick Estes about the reissuing of his book Our History Is The Future ("Ancestors of the Future:" Nick Estes at May Day Books: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IH9BnMpRE-Y). Anthony and I discuss settler colonialism and the history and context as it applies to "Turtle Island." ...This is just the beginning of our discussion and we will be scheduling another interview to discuss more on this topic and what an analysis of Settler Colonialism means for our collective Liberation movements in the future. ---- Additional Readings: (A note from Anthony: no text is perfect or infallible. Not all are written by Marxists. But the texts are good introductions to begin to form an understanding of the historical context which informs settler occupation and how it has, and continues to function.)
