Episode 164: Shuli Branson

Gender Reveal

Tuck chats with Shuli Branson (she/they), author of Practical Anarchism: A Guide for Daily Life. Topics include:

• Transition as a form of anarchist refusal (and why transition itself isn’t liberatory)
• Breakup theory: letting go of the expectation that everything needs to last forever
• How raising kids can help you catch your authoritarian impulses
• Is it actually more responsible to give away your savings right now??
• Plus: Palestine solidarity, abolishing work, and signing up for your shift at the depression factory
