The Adnan Husain Show

Adnan discusses the life, legacy and politics of Malcolm X with Dr. Jared Ball (@imixwhatilike) of Morgan State University and host of the iMiXWHATiLiKE!. 100 years since the revolutionary was born & 60 since his brutal assassination, Malcolm X's biography radicalizes people globally against racism, colonialism and capitalism despite the distortions and lies used to moderate his political legacy. Dr. Ball discusses his efforts to correct the record, particularly the flawed biography of Malcolm X by Manning Marable that the academy and liberal establishments acclaimed.

He also discusses his thesis that the stereotype of "Muslim Rage", an orientalist and Islamophobic construct, should be recuperated and turned to a productive political purpose in struggling for liberation and social justice against racism. Adnan and Rayan explore the difference between sadness/despair and anger/action through Fanon and Malcolm X's ideas. Watch the episode on our YouTube channel Like, subscribe, share!

Part 7 of Palestine and the World: History in a Time of Genocide (Denial). In this concluding episode, Ariel and Adnan reflect on the historical themes traced in the series to connect the fate of Gaza to a wider universal frame. In many ways, Gaza is not only a political litmus test or a moral challenge to our collective humanity but also a crucible in which the fate of our world future being forged. History will judge whether the "Palestine laboratory" will be one of dystopic technological capitalist hegemony for the few or the liberation and recognition of the indivisible humanity that demands equality and justice for all.

Adnan and Ariel shift focus from the region to a global perspectives of US geopolitics and empire to understand Israel as a project of the West and to explore the particular dimensions of US political support driving a genocidal policy. Identifying the military industrial/security/surveillance complex, the Christian evangelical movements and their apocalyptic (and anti-semitic) support for Israeli genocide, as well as other factors of US politics and geopolitics like the pro-US regional lobbies helps understand the virulence of anti-Palestinian racism and a new antisemitism against anti-zionist Jews. The episode analyzes the forces which have shaped US-Israeli politics and ideology and fuel the genocide in Gaza. Watch the episode on our YouTube channel Like, subscribe, share!
