Does true solidarity only stem from shared experiences of oppression?

In this episode, I have the absolute pleasure of speaking with Ben, an international relations student from the North West of England, and a personal close friend.

This interview was recorded in the weeks following the murder of George Floyd, and the subsequent protests that followed this injustice.  Through our conversation, we explore; white privilege, the state's emphasis on property damage as a distraction tactic, Britain's ahistorical nature and the concept of Irish and Black Caribbean solidarity in Liverpool from a shared experience of British oppression.
