In this episode, hosted on the Xicana Tiahui podcast platform, the Sandovalian Semillero Collective delves into Chapter 6 of Methodology of the Oppressed. The collective has a serious conversation about love. What exactly animates one to pursue "social justice," "liberation," or "freedom dreams" in a world where, as Sandoval puts it in her classroom, the social physics of war is the norm? To fall in love, not as a romantic or revolutionary (though these are also important), as a decolonizing movida is to take to task love as a hermeneutic. To be committed to the social movements today, against capitalism, colonialism, and patriarchy, one must confront love.
