Episode 75: "We Carry a New World Here, In Our Hearts" Mar 03, 2020

Show notes

In this seventy-fifth episode of Coffee with Comrades, we are joined by the historian and professor Danny Evans, author of the brand new book Revolution and the State: Anarchism in the Spanish Civil War, 1936-1939, out now from AK Press!

In this edition of the program, we speak about the Spanish Revolution and Civil War, counterrevolution, and anti-fascism.

As a side-note, Danny mentions that conservatives in the Spanish Republic saw women in the revolution as "the gates of hell" opening up, a phrase popularized by Danny Payne.

Today's episode has three parts.

Pt. I features a report-back recorded shortly after the January 13 Teachers' Strike with Brett from Dumb & Awful. (4:36)
In Pt. II, FSU-GAU treasurer, Michael Yost, and I discuss the ongoing struggles our union has taken part in over the past month and recent FL legislation that's targeted at alleviating graduate student fees. (30:23)
In Pt. III, Michael and I chat about the debacle last week in Iowa. (1:09:13)

Episode 65: "The Revolt of the Guards" Dec 10, 2019

Show notes

In this week's episode of Coffee with Comrades, we sit down with Jack and Brett to chat about veterans on the left. We talk about healthcare, horror stories, toxic masculine machismo, winning over allies, and the unique ways late-stage capitalism compels young folks to enter the armed forces. What's more, Jack and Brett talk about the unfortunate ways certain segments of the left twist legitimate anti-war and anti-imperialist sentiment into hatred for veterans.
