Hi habibtis and habibis! This is the special tenth episode of Habibti Please. In this episode, Nashwa co-hosts with friend of the pod Arif Hasan; together the two interview special guest Noam Chomsky. While preparing for the interview, Nashwa and Arif set out to thoughtfully curate a set of questions that were diverse in range and are rarely asked of Dr. Chomsky in recent years. As a result, in the episode the group discusses the reactionary international as well as socialist gains in Bolivia and operationalizes the distinctions between facism and Trump’s reign. Other topics covered include intergenerational conflicts in left politics, Guantanamo Bay, and so much more. Please be sure to also check out the post show!
