Join us in this episode as we explore the life, works, and impact of revolutionary poet Habib Jalib. Born in Punjab and later moving to Karachi, Jalib's poetry and activism were deeply rooted in Marxist-Leninist ideologies. We discuss his celebrated works like 'Dastur' and his impact on movements against military dictatorships in Pakistan.

The episode touches on Jalib's relationships with political figures such as Ayub Khan, Zia-ul-Haq, and Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, as well as his connections with other leftist poets. We also dive into Jalib's feminist alliances and the broader Progressive Writers Movement. A must-listen for those interested in revolutionary literature and Pakistani history.
