COUNTER•POWER is the podcast for global solidarity. Some say we are entering a new age of hard power, where might makes right and despots carve up the world between them. Here on COUNTER•POWER, we’ve got other ideas. The despots are facing rising resistance across the world, and our job is to build these sources of "counter-power".

To the „man in the steet“ the racism aspect and the underlying meaning behind Brexit and slogans like „Take back control“ was blindingly obvious.
