Get Thomas' book here: https://global.oup.com/.../no-option-but-sabotage...&
Not just a history of a major extremist movement, this book tells the story of radical environmentalism and highlights how activists are confronting the dual threats of climate change and repression, and asking themselves how far they are willing to go to protect the planet.

Get Alex's class here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/modern-russia-75-151205869?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_fan&utm_content=web_share
Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2019 did not happen in a vacuum. In fact, it was the result of a series of events that culminated in the disintegration of the USSR and its messy aftermath. The only way that we can fully understand the intricacies of "collapse," the Ukraine conflict, and modern Russia is by careful study of its history.
This course begins with the late Tsarist Empire, assessing its imperial structure and its fault lines, taking students through the collapse of Autocracy, the two revolutions of 1917, all the way to Putin's ascent. Combining over 10+ years of study (my PhD is in Russian History), personal knowledge, archival experience, and more, it offers students a thorough understanding of Russia and the USSR.
The class is split into 7 sessions, comprised of lectures and discussion. We will begin meeting at the end of March on a day and time decided together.

Stefan discusses with Quinn and Kuba about 'realism' in A Song of Ice and Fire and more generally in Medievalist Media, what Medievalism even means, and the disjuncture between GRRM's approach to 'realism' and what we see in the work of Brandon Sanderson (We'll actually probably talk about how Hot Pie is a Yi Ti landing strip)

“Cultural Marxism” is one of the far right’s favorite buzzwords. But despite its currency, the meaning and origins of the term are rarely investigated. This book uncovers the bizarre story of the cult leaders, right-wing intellectuals, and White House officials who believe a coterie of left-wing scholars and students is plotting to undermine Western civilization. Drawing on years of archival research and using the tools of critical theory, A.J.A. Woods reveals how a group of German thinkers known as the Frankfurt School was recast as the sinister orchestra-tors of a global conspiracy. Instead of simply debunking this conspiracy theory, Woods offers a sharp analysis and critique of the political movements that have declared war on all that passes for Cultural Marxism in the US, the UK, and Brazil.
Only when we understand the practices and weaknesses of those reactionaries committed to fighting this illusory threat—a conflict causing real-world damage—can we effectively resist. This is an essential book for anyone seeking to understand the ideological currents shaping politics in the twenty-first century.
