Episode 52: Discourse on Colonialism with Asha Ransby-Sporn - a podcast by The Lit Review

Originally published in 1950, Discourse on Colonialism by Aimé Césaire directly and dramatically influenced the liberation struggles happening in Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean. A blazing collection of thoughts that affirms Black identity and culture, embraces surrealism as revolt, and demands decolonization movements that “decolonize our minds, our inner life, at the same time that we decolonize society.”

?Monica and Page talk with their long-time comrade Asha Ransby-Sporn ?of the Black Abolitionist Network (BAN) and Dissenters. to learn more about what Césaire challenges readers to think through and how we might apply its lessons to today’s ongoing struggles against empire.
