We're back with our 53rd episode! Our guests are Denys Pilash, political scientist and democratic socialist from Kyiv, Ukraine and Igancy Jóźwiak, a sociologist, anthropologist and trade unionist from our hometown of Warsaw Poland. We talk about the Ukrainan people's long and ongoing struggle against the Russian chauvinism and imperialism. After discussing Ivan Dzyuba's Marxist-Leninist critique of the Soviet oppression of the Ukrainian society, culture and language, we move to another important book on this issue by Stephen Velychenko. Then we focus on the current events in the war-torn Ukraine and the fate of the anti-authoritarian and left-wing forces participating in fending off the Russian invasion. We also talk about the colonial mindset of large parts of the "Western Left" when it comes to taking stance on Ukraine and Russia as well as number of other issues. The accompanying graphic is a work of David Chichkan, a recently martyred anarchist soldier and artist who is also mentioned in our conversation.

Slavery, suffering and resistance in 'Azucre' - in conversation with Bibiana Candia
With our 41st episode we begin a non-regular mini series on different faces of slavery, its cultural representations and resistance to it. We talk to Bibiana Candia, an acknowledged writer and journalist of Galician origin about her brilliant debut historical novel "Azucre" which was translated into Polish by Katarzyna Okrasko and published by ArtRage in 2023. It is a beutifully written fact-based story of Galician peasants who traveled to Cuba in late 19th century tempted by the promise of better life but end up as slaves at a sugar cane plantation. They were used by greedy landlords as substitutes for Black African slaves after the slavery was formally abolished in Cuba in 1886. Stay tuned for more episodes in this series!
