PsychLib17 - Escape from the Race State w/Ronnie Barkan

From Privilege to Resistance: Ronnie Barkan's Journey as an Israeli Dissident

In this episode of the PsychLib Podcast, we feature Ronnie Barkan, an outspoken Israeli dissident who shares his journey from a privileged upbringing in a Zionist society to his staunch opposition against Israeli apartheid and Zionism. Joined by hosts, Ronnie delves into the psychological and societal mechanisms that sustain the Zionist state, the deep-seated racism within Israeli society, and the historic and contemporary collusion between Zionists and racists. He also discusses his involvement in the first-ever Jewish Anti-Zionist Congress and the role of liberal Zionist organizations in perpetuating systemic oppression. This episode offers a thought-provoking look at the human and ethical dimensions of political resistance, exploring the internal and external battles faced by those who challenge deeply entrenched ideological structures.
