This is the inaugural episode of a brand new Party Girls series—Global Uprisings—where Jamie and Sam dive into revolts, revolutions and insurgencies as they spring forth around the planet. We are living through an unprecedented wave of uprisings and rebellions that have been sweeping the globe for the past 15 years, tune in to Party Girls - Global Uprisings to stay in the know.
In this episode Jamie and Sam explore the unfolding revolution in Myanmar, shining a light on the pro-democracy movement that has taken the country by storm in the wake of a 2021 military coup. Using "The Revolution in Myanmar," an interview conducted between Ill Will Editions and Azad, a freedom fighter in Myanmar, as its primary source, this episode also provides historical context and analysis of the dynamic and unfolding situation. What is the role of the revolutionary Organization in all of this? Why should communist partisans take an interest in a revolution if, at the end of the day, it is essentially fighting for bourgeois democracy? All of this and more on this weeks episode of Party Girls.
