Lossin about how early criminal syndicalism laws were weaponized against the IWW in the early 20th century to criminalize their political education around industrial sabotage, and how those acts of repression have continued to shape how certain demands are dismissed as “too radical” or as “adolescent” today.

This recording is from a series of sessions we organized at this year's Socialism Conference. To hear Beatrice's recent interview with Lamble about their book Unsafe: The Carceral Roots of the Anti-Trans Backlash, find it here: https://www.patreon.com/deathpanelpod/posts/173479189 Full session description: The struggle over trans healthcare is one of the clearest expressions of how medicine, incarceration, and borders are intertwined. As the US and Britain increasingly govern through prohibition, austerity, and criminalization, the reach of policing and punishment has rapidly expanded—both inside and outside the prison walls. Vicky Osterweil, Lamble, and Beatrice Adler-Bolton will discuss the carcerality of the anti-trans panic, its centrality to health fascism, and what abolition can teach us about defending care beyond the limits of the state.
