Welcome, to This Is America, October 4th, 2024.

On this episode, first we have an interview with someone on the frontline of autonomous disaster relief efforts in so-called North Carolina with Triangle Mutual Aid. For support their efforts and read dispatches from TMA, go here. Margaret Killjoy also has a report out, an interview on It Could Happen Here, and Firestorm, the anarchist community center in Asheville, is also publishing updates. Don’t forget to check out our roundup of mutual aid and autonomous disaster relief efforts here.

Next, we speak with IGD contributor Scott Campbell about the expanding war in Palestine that has now escalated into Lebanon. We speak about the recent attacks carried out by the Israeli state, its geopolitical implications, and how resistance movements can continue to push back against the war.
