In this conversation, we sit down with an organizer and fighter from the internationalist front in Myanmar to explore the lived realities of the Spring Revolution and the autonomous women’s struggle rising from within it. Moving from poetry to political analysis, we discuss what it means to take up internationalism in practice, not as an idea, but as a commitment carved through shared danger, discipline, and deep love for the people.
We trace the formation of the AIF (Anti-Fascist Internationalist Front), the roots of women’s autonomous power in the hills, and the political and cultural contradictions that shape collective life under war. We talk about comradeship, grief, and joy as the emotional infrastructure of revolution, the role of art and memory, and how different cultural understandings of gender and liberation collide, transform, and re-form through struggle.
This episode is a meditation on building political consciousness in motion, forging international solidarity without romanticization, and creating structures capable of holding not only power, but freedom itself

In this in-depth conversation with Ashanti Alston — former Black Panther, political prisoner, and life long learner — we explore the radical meaning of life, death, and liberation. Ashanti reflects on the personal and collective sacrifices demanded by struggle, the weight of “social death,” and the spiritual grounding found in honoring ancestors.
Drawing from his years in the Black Panther Party and the Black Liberation Army, Ashanti discusses the challenges of underground life, the lessons of past resistance movements, and the ongoing need for ideological diversity within revolutionary spaces. He shares insights on embracing anarchism through an Indigenous and communal lens, doing the internal work necessary for healing, and building movements rooted in love, accountability, and inclusion.
This episode offers both historical depth and practical wisdom — a reflection on what it means to live, resist, and build freedom together in the face of empire.

Why do I identify as an anarchist—specifically, a Black anarchist? I share my journey from early organizing and labor work to international protest. From the Black Panther Party’s survival programs to my time at Standing Rock, in France during Nuit Debout, and traveling through the Philippines, I’ve seen how mutual aid, decolonization, and direct action can transform our understanding of freedom.✏️ What radical moment shaped your politics?

It’s been a year since Trump’s return to the White House. We look at the chaos of his second term—from attacks on birthright citizenship to sweeping emergency powers and foreign policy shocks. We break down the fallout at home: labor pushback, a fractured left, and the rise of fascist movements. Most of all, we ask what resilience, solidarity, and new forms of anti-fascist organizing look like in this moment.

In this episode, we sit down with Anastasia bat Lilith to explore the intersections of Jewish anarchism, spirituality, and organizing. From the roots and lineages that shaped her text Teshuva to the ways Jewish ritual, decolonial thought, and anarchist praxis inform her daily life, Anastasia offers a deep and vulnerable conversation on building liberatory community.
Together we dig into themes of teshuva as both practice and zine, the dangers of “unity” rhetoric, the struggle against hierarchy and piety, and how dysphoric and decolonial anarchist lineages guide organizing beyond settler secularism. We also journey through the history of the Jewish Zine Fest—its origins, intentions, and role as ritual space—while grounding in questions of family, antizionist study, and collective transformation.
This episode is a call to rethink what grounds us, what questions we hold, and what it means to organize spiritually, politically, and communally in the face of empire.

What does survival look like under fascism? History tells us that people resist in different ways — some fight, some flee, some freeze. From Hitler’s Germany to Cold War Latin America to Trump’s America, we’ll examine the lessons of democratic collapse. Drawing on Jason Stanley and Black radical thinkers, this video explores how to recognize authoritarian creep, how solidarity can keep us alive, and the haunting question: Is it time to leave?

What is Black August? And why does it matter? In this episode, we're diving deep into the history and spirit of a month dedicated to resistance. It's a time to honor the freedom fighters and political prisoners who sacrificed everything for our liberation.
Our main focus is on the incredible legacy of Kwame Ture, formerly known as Stokely Carmichael. We'll follow his journey from a young, charismatic student leader in the Civil Rights Movement , the Freedom Rides, the infamous Parchman Penitentiary in Sunflower County, Mississippi, and Black Power.

The Dugout is a podcast rooted in liberationist politics and radical imagination, we are taking this work beyond the mic. We’re building a new website that will serve as a hub for political education and resource-sharing. This platform will host a series of accessible learning modules—covering topics like an introduction to Black anarchism, the history and legacy of the Black Panther Party, anarchist internationalism, the theory and practice of mutual aid, and more. The goal: to make radical ideas and histories easier to find, understand, and use in everyday organizing.
In addition to educational modules, the site will feature a growing archive of books, films, zines, and other cultural works that have inspired, challenged, and shaped our politics. This digital library will give visitors a chance to dive deeper into the thinkers, movements, and art that fuel our conversations on the podcast. Whether you’re looking to explore classic revolutionary texts or discover under-shared contemporary works, the archive will be a living, evolving resource for study and inspiration.
The new platform will also offer a curated way to explore The Dugout’s own catalog—past episodes, interviews, and thematic series—making it easier to connect ideas across time and topics. We see this as more than just a website; it’s a political home for study, imagination, and solidarity. Whether you’re just finding your way into Black anarchist thought or you’ve been organizing for decades, The Dugout’s new online space is here to deepen our collective understanding and sharpen our tools for liberation.
