The Dugout | a black anarchist podcast

MARGARET KILLJOY on Speculative Fiction, Her Punk Roots, and the Journey to Anarchism


Listen Later

In this episode of The Dugout, we’re thrilled to welcome Margaret Killjoy, a prolific author, musician, crafter, and unapologetic anarchist. Margaret shares her journey from growing up as a "confused goth kid" in the suburbs to discovering anarchism through punk subculture and anti-globalization movements. We dive into the role of speculative fiction as a medium for radical imagination and discuss the intersections of identity, politics, and art. From DIY zines to the lasting influence of Steampunk Magazine, Margaret reflects on her experiences building and engaging with anarchist communities.
