Interview w/ The Laboratory for Insurrectionary Imagination

Red Planet took the week off from the live show, so we thought it would be a good opportunity to revisit one of our favorite interviews from last year. As it happens, we also were recently contacted by Jay and Isa, our comrades at the ZAD de Notre-Dame-des-Landes and founders of the Laboratory for Insurrectionary Imagination, regarding recent actions by the French government to crack down on radical protest movements -- the Earth defense collective known as "les soulèvements de la Terre" in particular -- and prevent the establishment of other ZADs.
So, this week, we're bringing you our conversation from last November with Jay and Isa, along with a call for solidarity.
You can read and sign the call here: https://lessoulevementsdelaterre.org/en-eu/blog/nous-sommes-les-soulevements-de-la-terreLearn more about LaboFII at their website: https://labo.zone/
