Mental Health, Eco-Despair, & Revolutionary Optimism
🕑 Added 2021-07-22 22:24:32 +0000 UTCIn this second installment of our ongoing series "Dialectics and Psychedelics", Joshua Kahn Russell joins Breht to discuss anxiety and depression, how trauma shapes left movements and organizations, what constitutes a truly healthy left organization, the impact of climate change on our mental health, eco-anxiety, eco-grief, and eco-depression, as well as some reasons to be cautiously optimistic (and maybe even downright hopeful) about the coming decades.

Transcriptions has been something weve struggled to make happen for years. As is, we simply dont have good enough transcription software nor the people-power to make it happen. But we are constantly looking for solutions because people ask us all the time for them!

It would be amazing if these episodes with Joshua could be transcribed (all of your episodes really) there is so much I want to note that he says that can be carried across to organising. Great work doing this ep, thank you!
