<p><b>Minor Compositions Podcast Episode 14: Revolutionary Love
& the Deep Commons with Matt York</b><br>

<br>
For this episode we talk with Matt York about his book <i>Love
and Revolution: A politics for the Deep Commons</i><br>
<br>
“Based on award-winning research, <i>Love and Revolution</i>
brings classical and contemporary anarchist thought into a
mutually beneficial dialogue with a global cross-section of
ecological, anti-capitalist, feminist and anti-racist activists –
discussing real-life examples of the loving-caring relations that
underpin many contemporary struggles.<br>
<br>
Such a (r)evolutionary love is revealed to be a common embodied
experience among the activists contributing to this collective
vision, manifested as a radical solidarity, as political direct
action, as long-term processes of struggle, and as a deeply
relational more-than-human ethics. The theory developed in this
book is brought to life through the voices of Tom at the G20
protests in Toronto, Maria and her permaculture community in
Mexico, Hassan on the streets in Syria, Angelo and his comrades
occupying squares in Brazil, Dembe and his affinity group in
Kampala, and many more.”<br>
