The BAD PODCAST - Antifa as Revolutionary Nonconformity in Dance, Theater, and Respect for Unhoused Neighbors

The BAD PODCAST

This is our 10th episode, and we (Aly and Jim) go into our roots as an antifa dance (& theatre) collective, discussing why we believe what we do in street dancing, art, and theater are revolutionary antifascist activities just as vital to a revolutionary movement as other forms of direct action. We play around with surrealism, too, but we also discuss our broader interests. As full humans, movement and expression is vital to us, but just as we rebel against limiting forms of activist expression, we do not limit our activism to art. In that light, we discuss a recent essay that Jim wrote against an urban camping ordinance proposed here and the general lack of respect people who don't have homes receive. The thread of all our discussion is breaking patterns of conformity in all aspects of our existence.

The police don't protect you
The government doesn't serve you
Change isn't made in a ballot box
You better get together with the people in your neighborhood
And learn how to save yourselves
