Political repression and how to fight it - Comrades Kat and Kate from the PDC explain
Mansa sits down with Comrades Kat and Kate from the Partisan Defence Committee to discuss the increase in political repression and its relation to the crisis of U.S. hegemony.

You can follow PDC Britain on X@ PDCBritain, or in the US @PartisanDefense Like the episode? Hate it? Either way, get in touch!
