Spiritual Anarchy or the Inner Fascist
Manage episode 371621195 series 3492699
In this episode Meghan is joined again by Che Broadnax to discuss the concept of the Inner Fascist, introduced in the book Living in a Time of Dying. Put succinctly, the Inner Fascist functions as a kind of inner colonizer, a process which lies at the heart of fascisms in the social and politics sphere. In contrast, they discuss a vision of Spiritual Anarchy based in respect, reciprocity, and care. Together, Che and Meghan traverse and weave together themes of trauma and harm, bifurcation and binary ruptures, fractal freedom, and the dreams that will lead us off the planation.
One note: this was originally a longer recording that got edited down to one hour, so some parts may seem a bit choppy and out of context--podcasting is not always smooth or seamless--but trust me, it's better this way. I told y'all this would sometimes be awkward and messy! ;)
Che mentions Robin D. G. Kelley's Freedom Dreams: The Black Radical Imagination (Twentieth Anniversary Edition, 2022), as well as the Netflix series The OA (2016-2017), the film V for Vendetta (2005), various scenes from Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Return of the Jedi (1983), and, of course, Black Panther (2017).
