Host Taylor interviews Feral–writer, editor, and lifelong anarchist–about her work both in the anarchist creative scenes of Quebec and as a writer of dystopian fiction. Discussion includes historical perspective comparing the movements of the 1960s to the present, the fusion of big tech with the state and other private interests, the hope of building alternative communities, and more.
This show is part of a series running through the end of 2020, new episodes published weekly, in which I revisit interviews taken during a radio show road trip in the summer of 2015—checking back in with those activists, organizers and artists I met to see how their lives and work have adapted to changing times. You can find more information about that project at praxisradio.com/praxis.
