Djene Rhys Bajalan is an Assistant Professor in the Department of History at Missouri State University, a writer for publications such as OpenDemocracy and Jacobin, and a frequent guest on the Michael Brooks show. He is also a returning guest to this podcast, this time stopping by to educate me about the Kurdish struggle in Syria, Iraq, Iran and Turkey.

This week’s podcast is available in full for everyone but our patrons usually get access to two podcasts every week: Symptomatic Redness and Zero Squared. They also get access to our History of Communism video series, interviews with authors for our monthly book club, and pretty soon a reprised series called Pop the Left. If you’re a fan of this podcast consider becoming a patron.
