The Crumbling E19 - Somehow Grim and Still Hopeful - P2 - Interview with Aly Wane
Sophia and V continue the two part interview with Aly Wane, an
immigrants' rights activist, about his history with the work, his thoughts
about our current moment, how we got there, and where we can go
next. The connections between this and the prior interview with David
Livingstone Smith are discussed, as well as ideas on dehumanization.
The parallels between the oppression of transgender people,
immigrants, and Palestinians is discussed at length, and so is how to
find solidarity among us all, so that we can all achieve justice.
