Episode description

In this episode of Conversations on Anarres, we talk with Katherine Ann Power about her new memoir, "Surrender: My Journey from Guerilla to Grandmother". For over twenty years, Power was on the FBI Most Wanted List for her involvement in a revolutionary armed cell that sought the overthrown of the US government. After a bank robbery in which a police officer was killed, Power went into hiding and lived a secretive life. Eventually, she decided she needed to redefine her radical politics and she turned herself in. Upon her parole some years later, she began to study philosophy and to think about what social transformation involves if it is to be truly radical.
