Change of Perspective by Brückenwind

In the 8th episode of the Change of Perspective podcast "Radical bravery - reclaiming the narratives of resistance", we speak with Najla Mohamed-Lamin, political activist for rights of the people of Western Sahara.
In this episode with Najla we speak about what it means to be radicaly brave in our everyday life. Najla speaks about responsability and resistance and about the friends that we build community with and our grandmothers that we learned from, about stolen land and about the struggle that is one.

In the seventh episode of Change of Perspective – Beyond Helping: Reinventing Solidarity, we speak with Yili Rojas, member of the educational platform Südblicke – Perspectives from the Global South.

Yili reflects on political education, colonial continuities, self-organization, and the importance of unlearning.
