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.

The Nicaraguan Revolution: Sandinista victory, international solidarity and Orteguista decay
45 years after the tryumph of the Sandinista-led popular revolution in Nicaragua, we talk to Matthias Schindler who devoted around 40 years of his life to building international solidarity with this revolution. We focus on both its achievements and its failures. The latter resulted in a brutal assault on a popular 2018 mobilisation against the corruption and antisocial policies of the once glorious FSLN. Matthias is a former local leader in IG Metall - a major German trade union. After organising support for the Sandinistas for many years, he became a vocal critic of the degenerated Ortega-Murillo regime. He has written about Nicaragua extensively and is currently working on his PhD on this subject at New University of Lisbon.
