Hasanain is a father, social justice educator, and longtime activist and organizer. I personally have been learning so much from him about the way oppressive systems are impacting all of us regardless of our privileges, where we live, or how we identify.

In this conversation, we talk about whiteness as a construct, the role of propaganda, and why representation is not enough. Hasanain’s ability to show us how all the dots connect is liberatory in an of itself. 

Hasanain reminds us that we must move into and through all the suffering and injustice and build the future that we want to see. We are all meant to be here in this moment — we have work to do.
