The Revolution Will Be Incremental with Rebecca Solnit
The sisters are ecstatic to build with writer, activist and historian Rebecca Solnit. Her latest book is No Straight Road Takes You There: Essays on Uneven Terrain.They talk about how solidarity is always across difference and about the things we have in common mattering more then the things we don't, how liberation is contagious, prioritizing where to pour our energy, a politics of inseparability vs. the politics of division, our default response of turning towards each other in a crisis, how it turns out that even when your world has fallen apart you can light up with joy because you found the meaning and connection that's been missing in everyday life, a world with an abundance of time and security rather than abundance as neoliberal rhetoric, how there's no shortage of anything, just distribution problems, hunkering down for the likely reality of climate collapse and how we can't save everything but that doesn't mean we can't save anything.---TRANSCRIPT---SUPPORT OUR SHOWhttps://www.patreon.com/Endoftheworldshow---HTS ESSENTIALSSUPPORT Our Show on Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/EndoftheworldshowPEEP us on IGhttps://www.instagram.com/endoftheworldpc/

They discuss reform vs. revolution, taking America for granted, the dysfunction of the USA, direct actions that model concepts beyond nation-states, choosing right actions in troubling times, it's not either/or, being prefigurative in our actions, how much of a population needs to actively participate for there to be movement, regime change vs. systems change, how power is fundamentally held, keeping vulnerable communities safe while participating, risk tolerance, who's gonna water your plants if you're in jail, what makes a tactic legitimate, the biggest block to solidarity and the illusion of a clear, direct path to freedom.---TRANSCRIPT---SUPPORT OUR SHOWhttps://www.patreon.com/Endoftheworldshow---HTS ESSENTIALSSUPPORT Our Show on Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/EndoftheworldshowPEEP us on IGhttps://www.instagram.com/endoftheworldpc/

I'm the Hell
The sisters convene to consider the realizion that aging means being in grief all the time but continuing, nonetheless, writing in the bath, taking responsibility for our inner state, the free Channi Breakthrough Course, the dream job of being a backup vocalist, political youth theatre, awesome kids learning from awesome parents, conflicted perpetrators and the sisters' personal journey on that pathway, 9/11, what it means to be an American, the disorientation and nausea of "What the hell? I'm the hell!", leaving cults when you realized it all made sense till it didn't, how Robin Hood triggered anti-authoritarianism, the rich history of student organizing at Columbia, the normalization of being at the top of a military superpower, the big question of 'is anything real?', having a different kind of conversation with your parents, sitting with the ocean, the cult of purity, fugitive resistance as a way of resisting the ideology of the state, figuring out how to not shop on Amazon, moving from cult to cult, needing a new belief system, and how solidarity is the only salve once you recognize that you're in the perpetrator role.---TRANSCRIPT---SUPPORT OUR SHOWhttps://www.patreon.com/Endoftheworldshow---HTS ESSENTIALSSUPPORT Our Show on Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/EndoftheworldshowPEEP us on IGhttps://www.instagram.com/endoftheworldpc/
