Minor Compositions Podcast Episode 14: Revolutionary Love & the Deep Commons with Matt York

For this episode we talk with Matt York about his book Love and Revolution: A politics for the Deep Commons

“Based on award-winning research, Love and Revolution brings classical and contemporary anarchist thought into a mutually beneficial dialogue with a global cross-section of ecological, anti-capitalist, feminist and anti-racist activists – discussing real-life examples of the loving-caring relations that underpin many contemporary struggles. ​ Such a (r)evolutionary love is revealed to be a common embodied experience among the activists contributing to this collective vision, manifested as a radical solidarity, as political direct action, as long-term processes of struggle, and as a deeply relational more-than-human ethics. The theory developed in this book is brought to life through the voices of Tom at the G20 protests in Toronto, Maria and her permaculture community in Mexico, Hassan on the streets in Syria, Angelo and his comrades occupying squares in Brazil, Dembe and his affinity group in Kampala, and many more.” .

Opening / outro music: Gogol Bordello, “Oh No!” (from Gypsy Punks: Underdog World Strike)
