Episode 39: The empire strikes back or a new hope?
with Kojo Koram and Ana Oppenheim
30th October 2019As Britain lurches into an unknown political moment we review the deeper issues and wider context. Hosts Zoe Williams and Luke Cooper are joined by Kojo Koram, a lecturer at Birkbeck who has written widely on the colonial fantasies animating the Brexit project, and Ana Oppenheim, a staff member of Another Europe Is Possible and, when she’s not busy with that, a Polish anti-fascist. They discuss the moment of huge danger and opportunity we find ourselves in. The podcast was recorded at the Another Europe podcast and party event on Sunday 27th October.
The European Cultural Foundation supports this initiative as it is rethinking Europe as an open and democratic space.
