COUNTER•POWER
COUNTER•POWER
COUNTER•POWER is the podcast for global solidarity. Some say we are entering a new age of hard power, where might makes right and despots carve up the world between them. Here on COUNTER•POWER, we’ve got other ideas. The despots are facing rising resistance across the world, and our job is to build these sources of "counter-power".
The podcast is brought to you by Stop Trump Coalition, Another Europe Is Possible and Global Justice Now, three organisations at the centre of the new global resistance.
