https://tankie.tube/videos/watch/f92a1987-c5ef-4d80-b48c-2dd889681748 The latest installment in our Liberation School interview series focuses on the relationship between Islamophobia and imperialism. Dr. Jennifer Ponce de León interviews Dr. Nazia Kazi about her work on race and global politics, with a particular focus on how to understand the so-called 'War on Terror' and its impact on the Muslim Left. Their wide-ranging conversation engages with themes from the new edition of Dr. Kazi's book "Islamophobia, Race, and Global Politics". It also lays out some of her current research on the CIA and the U.S. National Security State's alliance with rightwing Muslim forces around the world, a theme she explored in this recent article (https://www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/america-war-terror-obscures-US-alliance-rightwing-islam).
