Against Multipolar Imperialism w/ Kavita Krishnan⁠⁠, ⁠⁠Promise Li⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠Romeo Kokriatski (Rerun)

  • Summary

  • For this rerun episode, Elia Ayoub is joined by Kavita Krishnan, an Indian Marxist and Feminist who used to be a politburo member of the Communist Party of India (Marxist–Leninist) Liberation who resigned over Ukraine. He is also joined by ⁠Promise Li⁠, a US-based Hong Konger organizer and part of the Left diaspora collective ⁠Lausan. Co-hosting this episode is ⁠Romeo Kokriatski⁠, a Ukrainian-American journalist, managing editor of the ⁠New Voice of Ukraine⁠ and co-host of the ⁠Ukraine Without Hype⁠ podcast. The topic: why the idea of multipolarity needs to be understood & critiqued, and why the left cannot abandon anti-authoritarianism and internationalism. Note: Due to Russia's ongoing bombardments of Ukraine, Romeo's power went out towards the end of the episode so we had to continue without him.
