In this great episode of Guerrilla History, we are joined by the creative team behind the new graphic novel Toussaint Louverture: The Story of the Only Successful Slave Revolt in History! This tremendous work is the graphic novelization of a long lost CLR James play about the Haitian Revolution (which, incidentally, starred the great Paul Robeson the only time it was staged).

In this fascinating episode of Guerrilla History, we are joined by fan-favorite Manny Ness to discuss one of his new books, Migration as Economic Imperialism: How International Labour Mobility Undermines Economic Development in Poor Countries. This work directly takes on and dismantles the notion that labor migration is beneficial for the countries of the Global South who send their workers abroad. This is a common refrain in mainstream, neoliberal developmentalist discourse, and this book and

In this collaboration, we went onto The Deprogram (hosted by comrades Hakim, JT, and Yugopnik) to provide an introduction to Colonialism and Imperialism. While we didn't have quite as much time to discuss newer theories of imperialism, such as World Systems Theory and Unequal Exchange, or specific forms of colonialism, such as settler-colonialism and neocolonialism, we hope that this primer will be of use to you and we also hope to reconvene with The Deprogram boys again to talk about some of

Here we discuss Alex's freshly released article at Foreign Exchanges titled A Future of Walls or Liberation, which examines some of the role and relationships between "Israel" and the countries and governments in Latin America.

In this episode of Guerrilla History, we bring on The Leninist Lawyer to discuss settler colonial law, and use the case study of Sue the T. rex, which was extracted from native lands, to help demonstrate how this works. A really interesting conversation, and while we are using a dinosaur fossil as the case study, this conversation is much more about settler colonial law generally, and therefore should be relevant for all of you regardless of whether you find dinosaurs interesting or not! *Note,
