Is history something dead and lost to the past. Doomed to repeat itself. Or is history alive with impacts on us today? If history is alive, is it the ghosts of our ancestors living within us, or is it also like dark matter, all around us and forming our existence? If history is alive, is it being controlled and channeled by powerful states and individuals, or is it something we can reclaim for an alternative life in freedom?
In this episode, we discuss what it means for history to be alive and how it has become a principle and method of struggle in the context of the Kurdish experience. Joining us is Nik Matheou. Nik is an activist and historian with Cypriot and Scots heritage. He is a lecturer in Global Medieval History at the University of Edinburgh, where his teaching and research focuses on radical and decolonising approaches, especially for longer, anti-Eurocentric lineages of capitalist modernity.
