CV S12 Ep 8: Gratitude for Arundhati Roy
Episode description
In this episode, Liz Darrow and Elias Lopez discuss the aftermath of the latest election season and our next steps forward as C2C and as community. We ground this conversation in the literature and philosophies of renowned author Arundhati Roy, whose ideas still serve as the keystone of C2C's organizing. It is important to spend time reexamining these foundational ideologies of the movement to assess how we will move forward. Her writing also catapults us into conversations about the recent extremes of violence in the occupation of Palestine, and how we can cultivate solidarity and trust in this time.
