A superb essay by Ashok Kumar from the latest issue of the BREAK–DOWN – a brilliant tour of the political economic terrain of fossil capital, from which springs essential strategic advice for activists. A must read!

I got interviewed for the Deadbeat Philosophy podcast, talking about Audre Lorde's thought and her impact, including why philosophers should care.

Lorde's work makes a demand of her readers, and I think more philosophers and theorists need to answer to it
