The War on our Minds: Psychoanalysis for Revolutionary Futures (w/ Lara Sheehi)

What this episode covers

In this episode, I have Lara Sheehi back on the podcast to discuss her new book on revolutionary psychology and psychic militancy. We discuss how the capitalist and imperialist ruling classes see our minds as a terrain on which to wage war, how this psychological warfare can confuse or pacify our resistance to the system, and most importantly, how we can tune ourselves to being uncompromising on our revolutionary politics and not succumb to pacification. We also look at the psychic militancy practiced by those at the vanguard of anti-imperialism – the Axis of Resistance – and what lessons we can take from their ‘resistance psychology’.PLEASE DONATE to the Sameer Project's Food and Water Campaign: https://chuffed.org/project/help-us-deliver-vital-aid-to-gaza-families-in-need?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bioGet Lara's Book: https://www.plutobooks.com/product/from-the-clinic-to-the-streets/Lara's Psychic Militancy podcast: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJvUPsxvEc7gn3BAsDG9I0wJournal of International Solidarity LinksPatreon: https://patreon.com/internationalsolidaritypodcast/ Instagram: https://instagram.com/journalofintlsolidarity/ Substack: https://intlsolidarity.substack.com/ Youtube: https://youtube.com/@journalofintlsolidarity/
