## Resource

The artist and writer Molly Crabapple joins journalist Spencer Ackerman and BISR's Suzy Schneider in coversation about her new book, Here Where We Live Is Our Country: The Story of the Jewish Bund , which recreates the revolutionary world of the Bundists, and explores the interwoven histories of the Bund, the Russian Revolution, and the Holocaust. What can we learn, she asks, from this short-lived but influential socialist alternative to Zionism? What does this movement have to say about the past and future of the Jewish left, radical diasporas, the politics of assimilation, and the Bund's cultural and intellectual legacy. What can the transnational history of the Bund teach us about working-class organization, education, and culture? How can the Bund's radical vision of solidarity inform liberation struggles in the present? You can download the episode by right-clicking here and selecting "save as."
