The War on Iran w/ Nina Farnia & Navid Farnia

In this episode of Guerrilla History, we have a critically important discussion that we hope you will find useful and will share with others that you think may benefit. Here we bring on Nina Farnia and Navid Farnia to discuss the ongoing war on Iran. The situation continues to develop rapidly, but the analysis provided here is absolutely crucial to continuing to deepen our understanding of what is happening as well as WHY is is happening the way it is. Be sure to check out the piece that they did for Pambazuka which we reference several times throughout the conversation - Iran v. US Imperialism: An Interview with Navid Farnia & Nina Farnia.

We also recommend you check out the previous episode that Nina did with us Lawfare and Imperialism.

Nina Farnia is a legal historian, focusing on the role of modern imperialism in U.S. law and politics. Her forthcoming book Imperialism and Resistance will be coming out next year from Stanford University Press, so stay tuned for that! You can find more of her work on her Albany Law webpage, and you can follow her on twitter @NinaFarnia.

Navid Farnia is a scholar of African American Studies. His research broadly explores the relationship between racial oppression in the United States and U.S. imperialism with a focus on revolutionary movements and counterrevolutionary responses. Navid's book manuscript, National Liberation in an Imperialist World: Race, Counterrevolution, and the United States, traces the U.S. national security state's evolution by examining how U.S. officials responded to national liberation movements at home and abroad from the 1950s to 1980.

Both are members of the Anti-Imperalist Scholars Collective.
