Spiritual Materialism? Left Politics and Marxian Mysticism w/Rev Left Radio’s Breht O’Shea

What does spirituality on the left look like? In a Ramadan special, Adnan discusses Buddhism and Sufi Islam, the distinctions between mysticism and mystification, spiritual practices and ethics as well as the liberation of the soul w/Revolutionary Left Radio and former co-host of Guerrilla History, Breht O’Shea. In a wide ranging and deep conversation about the inner life and the outer world, what it means to be truly human, and transformation socially and personally, Adnan and Breht explore the intersections of left politics and spirituality from the alienation of consumer corporate capitalism and the degradations of imperialism to the defiant dignity and faithful resilience of Gazan resistance.

Iran's History and Geopolitical Relations w/ Prof. David N. Yaghoubian

Thursday, February 20, 2025 • Duration 01:53:57

Prof. Adnan Husain discusses the modern history of Iran from the late nineteenth century to contemporary relations with the US with friend and colleague Prof. David N.

A wide-ranging conversation benefiting from Prof. Yaghoubian's thorough historical knowledge and trenchant political analysis.

Dr. David N. Yaghoubian is Professor of Modern west Asian and Islamic History at California State University-San Bernardino. aughot of "Ethnicity, Identity, and the Development of Nationalism in Iran" (Syracuse, 2014) and co-editor of "Struggle and Survival in the Modern Middle East" (3rd edition forthcoming).
