And So, So today we are joined by the one and only Harshaw Wahlia, a good friend of the Red Nation.

Harshah is a migrant justice, anti-capitalist, feminists, abolitionist, an anti-imperialist organizer, and she's also the author of the

award-winning book Undoing Border Imperialism, which has been foundational to the politics and the

thinking and the organizing of the Red Nation and today we're going to talk

about her new book called Border and Rule which just came out through Haymarket Press.

I actually wrote the afterward, small plug, but it's an amazing book and we definitely want to get into the book, but as the Red Nation,

we've been following closely your coverage, Harshah, of the farmers movement in India,

and we haven't actually talked about it on you know the show but

it's such a profound uprising 250 million people are engaged in in mass protest and yet

there's nothing in the news in places like the United States it gets small coverage and

it is possibly the largest labor strike in the history of the world.

What should we know and understand about this movement?

What is the history of it?

Who are the main organizers?

And what are the takeaways

for organized labor and movement building?

Yeah, thank you for that question.

And I have to say it's such an honor to be with the one and only comrades of the Red Nation

whose work hugely influences and inspires me. And thank you both Nick and Jen and everyone else at the Red Nation who just you are so profound in all of your work and your internationalist vision and the ways in which you lift up

struggles for indigenous sovereignty and for people all around the world so it truly is

an honor and I should say that I'm speaking to you two from the unseated territories of the

co-sailish people. These are the lands of the Musqueam, the Swailotho and the Squahomish people.
