  Office Hours 42-Political Prisoners and the Black Radical Tradition w/Orisanmi Burton 16.09.2026 1ч 33мин

  The Radical Academy is in session for an early edition, 9amET Fri Sept 4! Orisanmi Burton, a social anthropologist at the CUNY Graduate School and author of the profound study, Tip of the Spear: Black Radicalism, Prison Repression and the Long Attica Revolt, joins Office Hours for a discussion of political prisoners, Black radical resistance movements, internationalism and anti-imperialist solidarity. We might have a chance also to talk about his new project that integrates Black Muslim militants thinkers and activists and think about aspects of the relationsip between the Black Radical tradition and socialism/Marxism. We will certainly have much to discuss about the importance of political prisoners in the imperial core and under settler colonial rule from the US to Palestine. Since the open letter addressed rhetorically in the Guardian to political prisoners in Iran and signed by many leading scholars, activists and even political prisoners, the question of the politics around prisoners and solidarity has come further to the fore. Without belaboring that particular controversy, now is an opportune time to learn about and from the experience of political prisoners and resistance. Join us with your questions and comments!

  Office Hours 41-Requiem for French Theory w/Gabriel Rockhill 13.09.2026 2ч 8мин

  Full Audio of YouTube Livestream!!! The Radical Academy is in session for a continuing discussion with returning guest Gabriel Rockhill, Professor of Philosophy at Villanova University and author of numerous books, about the "Intellectual World War" and in particular the geopolitical economy of compatible left theory production in the imperial core. We discuss his new co-authored book, with Aymeric Monville, "Requiem for French Theory", from Monthly Review Press. It is a series of dialogues emerging from past sessions of The Critical Theory Workshop that engage a critique of structuralist, post-structuralist and postmodern French theory; contextualizes it in the global political economy of intellectual production; examines the consequences of its regressive and reactionary formulations as part of a broader "anticommunist cultural front"; and enjoins a revival of revolutionary praxis. It should be an interesting conversation on a very engaging and relevant short book and themes distilled from volume 1 of the "The Intellectual World War" series and extended to French theory in this digested fashion. Join us 4pmET Friday August 28 with your comments and questions. You can listen to/watch two previous episodes w/Gabriel, "The Imperial Theory Industry": https://youtu.be/Qz8rX6UEB2Q?si=xFKgdOxmdNNPCeWb and Office Hours 22-Western Marxism, https://www.youtube.com/live/6-okZ9MgvZE?si=s8QIXgzJWOIU9WMy "Requiem for French Theory" is available from Monthly Review Press: https://monthlyreview.org/9781685901509/ You can find out more about The Critical Theory Workshop: https://criticaltheoryworkshop.com/ Follow Gabriel Rockhill and learn about his work: https://gabrielrockhill.com/ Please support our fundraiser for students in Gaza taking my online course, Guerrilla History: Anticolonial Resistance History, Theory, Practice, for materials and supplies for their final history research projects and the costs to support an in-person version of the course starting in September for displaced students from Gaza on the campus of the American University in Cairo: https://chuffed.org/project/174168-support-a-third-round-of-spocs-for-gaza Thank you for supporting the program on Patreon as a paid member.

  Names of God (8): al-Muheet, "The Encompassing" 04.08.2026 56мин

  "The All-Encompassing" or al-Muheet is a less discussed of the Qur'anic divine attributes because many traditions/hadith of the devotional "99 Names" and subsequent Sufi commentaries do not include it. Al-Tilimsani, following the incidence of divine names as they appear in the Qur'an, dedicates a discussion of al-Muheet. Adnan and Marc engage in an exploration of the meanings and experiences of encompassing and return to the question of the divine-human relationship and the "jamali" and "jalali" distinction we've been considering in recent names emphasizing divine lordship. What is the relationship between the "Avenging" attribute al-Muntaqim and the ontological, universal "Mercy" of al-Rahman in the experience of "The All-Encompassing", al-Muheet? A phenomenological perspective bears particular fruit as we conclude with al-tlimimsani's quotation of the great North African Sufi Master Abu Madyan, "Whoever speaks of dates without tasting their sweetness in his mouth has not spoken of dates!" His final exhortation in his discussion of al-Muheet is: "So understand this, and you will understand the deepest meanings of the final end through your own tasting and state, not trhough transmitted reports and hearsay!" As ever, we reflect on how the name, the sufi commentaries on the name, might together bring insight to a deeper consideration of our own contemporary material conditions and instrospections spiritually, psychologically, and phenomenologically. We look forward to your comments!

  Ali Shariati's Red Shi'ism vs Black Shi'ism--Anti-Imperialist Muharram 2 05.07.2026 1ч 34мин

  The series The Karbabal Paradigm and Anti-Imperialist Resistance for Muharram addresses the important ideas that helped transform modern Shi'i devotional practice and theology into a revolutionary anti-imperialist force. Often called the ideologist of the Islamic Revolution in 1979, Dr. Shariati's writings and teachings are a fundamental source of anti-imperialist thought from the Global South. In particular he articulated a non-secular but radical and liberatory project that is at the heart of the Axis of Resistance's use of Shi'i values, rituals, and sacred histories as tools of struggle. You could say this episode will begin to delve into the historical reinterpretation of Shariati that gave birth to Shi'i liberation theology. Join me for Day 2/3 of Muharram on this series.

  Names of God (7): al-Malik, "The King" 04.07.2026 1ч 8мин

  In this 7th episode of the Names of God series, Adnan and Marc reflect on al-Malik, the King or Owner, another name or attribute that raises the questions of lordship and servanthood in their intimate, non-dualistic interrelationship and the language of hierarchy in the context of spiritual development and psychological health for humans. Because al-Tlimsani discusses the appearance of al-Malik in the context of its Qur'anic appearance in the opening surah, al-fatiha, as "Master of the Day of Judgment," we discussed the eschatological meanings of the "afterlife" from an experiential understanding in juxtaposition to conventional understandings in Islamicate (and broadly monotheistic) theology. al-Ghazali's definition of "kingship" as being free from need opens up ways of understanding spiritual self-sufficiency or sovereignty in our daily life as a practical absorption of this name spiritually. In a wide ranging conversation about different dimensions of al-Malik, we explore the spiritual, the metaphysical, the political, and the social in contemporary life from both conceptual and experiential approaches for what it means to be human.

  Why History Matters w/Yakoob Ahmed 22.06.2026 1ч 32мин

  his episode could equally be titled "ReOrienting History Islamically". Adnan is joined by historian of late Ottoman history and author of Why History Matters: Reviving Faith Through the Lens of History to talk about Eurocentric historiography and historical consciousness and whether Islamicate history provides alternatives and how global or world history might benefit from a reorientation. This is a crucial question not only for Muslims or scholars of history. It is evident that this history is understood principally through orientalist assumptions and frameworks that propose "western modernity" as the only standard for envisioning sovereign futures. As a result, rethinking and reorienting history is of universal concern and interest for understanding the human and envisioning a future beyond the hegemony of Western imperialist racial capitalism. What can studying not only Islamicate history but history "islamically" contribute to envisioning a just, equitable future for humanity? We'll ask Dr. Yakoob Ahmed and discuss the issues with you, so post your comments and questions!

  This Guerrilla History series previewing and analyzing the major international football (soccer) tournaments on and off the pitch continues with the disastrous US/Canada/Mexico hosted World Cup 2026.

  The Names of God (6): al-Rabb, "the Lord and Nourisher" 09.06.2026 1ч 12мин

  Adnan and Marc explore the name al-Rabb, which is usually translated at "The Lord" but with elements of educative and nourishing dimensions. Some even translate the name as "Nourisher". Although this is not one of the 99 names listed in typical devotional traditions, this self-description or name appears early in the Qur'an in its opening chapter, Surah Fatiha, in the verse "Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds." Al-Tilimsani discusses it, so Marc and I reflected on the themes of Lordship and Servanthood in the psychological and experiential schemes of Sufi understanding of this name as well as our own reflections. As ever, we try to orient our discussion not only around examining the meanings but also the mechanisms of the names for spiritual and psychological development and activation. Also as usual, we find social value as well in the effort to explore the Names in contemporary times. Join us!

  Myths about Islamic Resistance History in Palestine w/Mujamma Haraket 10.05.2026 1ч 33мин

  As part of this channel's effort to explore the theme of religion and resistance and to understand the Islamic resistance confronting US-Israeli empire, Adna speaks with scholar, translator, and historian of Islamic political movements, Mujamma Haraket. We explore the emergence of the Islamic Resistance in Palestine and its roots in anticolonial era and Muslim Brotherhood organizing in previous decades. In particular, Mujamma dispells myths and exposes their particular use to discredit Hamas by examining the source of contentions that Israel created or supported its "as a counterweight" to the secular nationalist PLO movement. This revealing and illuminating historical analysis based on careful assessment of the evidence and documentation. We also discuss the use of collaborationist gangs in Gaza and their Salafist or more properly "Madkhalist" Islamist orientations meant to undermine the resistance. A fascinating and learned discussion with an expert scholar.

  Still Minab: Iran's Martyrs and Sovereign Truth w/Helyeh Doutaghi and Bikrum Gill 06.05.2026 1ч 30мин

  Helyeh Doutaghi from Tehran and Bikrum Gill join me to discuss the haunting and powerful series "Still Minab" and its first two episodes. Helyeh's documentary absorbs the first part of our discussion about narrating and expressing the truth outside of the colonial and imperial framework. Then Adnan and Bikrum reflect on the wider significance of Iran's defiant position against the imperialist world system, revolutionary Shi'i theology and Islam as a vanguard of anti-imperialist resistance, and the fundamental question of sovereignty. We look forward to another episode soon with stable internet to further develop the themes of the scholarly article Helyeh and Bikrum are writing for Middle East Critique on these issues of Iran's place in anti-imperialist resistance history, theory and practice.

  The Qur'an as Geopolitics w/Indi.ca 28.04.2026 1ч 30мин

  In this era, the most active forces combating colonialism and imperialism are the "Axis of Resistance" in West Asia. Since October 7th, many have been either inspired or puzzled by the incomparable endurance of the Palestinian people and their heroic resistance to invasion, occupation, and genocidal violence. In both cases religious faith in Islam has proven of incalculable value to them as well as to resistance in Yemen, Lebanon, and Iran. Adnan speaks with writer, blogger and co-host of Resistance is Fertile Podcast, Indi (at Indi.ca) about his study of the Qur'an, Muslim scripture, as a way of understanding the Islamic resistance and current events. Although not a Muslim, he frequently cites the Qur'an in his own anti-imperialist writings and analysis as a source for understanding. We explore together the Qur'an as geopolitical analysis on the topics of war, peace, negotiations, and steadfastness against oppression.
