  • Episode 22 | Writing as an act of resistance
    Apr 18 2025
    The most powerful acts of resistance are sometimes the simple choices we make each day. The words we write. The pictures we take. The people we support. And the decision to step outside our home. To volunteer at migrant shelters. To stand with the most oppressed and marginalized. To fight against unjust systems. These are the daily acts of resistance of writer and reporter Tamara Pearson.

  • Episode 21 | Poetry and resistance: Breaking through the digital cacophony
    Apr 16 2025
    Federico Avalos is an Argentine poet. But he does not write the words. He recites them. And poetry is both Federico’s job and his activism. A theatric intervention. A temporal break in time from the digital monotony: The selfies, the tweets, the posts, the likes, the comments and the follows.

    This is Federico's resistance. Standing up to the cyber mayhem. Breathing art into the void. Magic. Reflection.

    This is episode 21 of Stories of Resistance — a podcast co-produced by The Real News and Global Exchange. Independent investigative journalism, supported by Global Exchange's Human Rights in Action program. Each week, we’ll bring you stories of resistance like this. Inspiration for dark times.

  • Episode 20 | Eduardo Galeano: Latin America’s poet-historian
    Apr 14 2025
    Titles do not do Eduardo Galeano justice. He was writer, reader, journalist, editor. But he was also historian. Catching stories in the air. Writing and retelling them anew. But he did not write for the stuffy halls of the elites or academia. He wrote for the people. He was a truth teller. A myth maker. An essayist. A poet. Polishing his craft. Honing his art. Chiseling his sculptures with words, until they were perfectly symmetrical. Gorgeous bouquets of words.

    He was a storyteller. And his tales had morals. His vignettes — tiny packets of beauty that remind us who we are, and where we come from. The immense injustices carried out by the powerful and the profound insight of the people. He died on April 13, 2015. This week is the 10-year-anniversary of his passing.
