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.

In conversation with Howie Hawkins - Ukraine, American Left, history and future
In the 49th episode we talk to Howie Hawkins, a former Teamsters trade union activist, one of the leaders of the Green movement in the USA and former canidate for numerous public offices representing the Green Party of the United States. Howie visited Poland as part of his European tour devoted primarily to strenghtening the international solidarity with Ukraine which he supports from the ecosocialist perspective. We talk about the intersection of the Red and the Green in the context of a global surge of the far-right, Trump's victory, Russian imperialism and Ukrainian resistance as well as Murray Bookichin who once inspired Abdullah Ocalan and the Kurdish movement and whose social-ecologist ideas inspired Howie's succesful efforts to push the American Greens towards a socialist programme.
