Episode 1495 Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description
Read Hamza's article in Jacobin here: https://jacobin.com/.../tupac-biography-black-panthers.../   Since his death in 1996, Tupac Shakur has existed less as a person than a symbol, flattened by myth, commodified by nostalgia, and recycled endlessly by an industry that thrives on decontextualized images of rebellion. A corrective is long overdue.   Check out our new bi-weekly series, "The Crisis Papers" here: https://www.patreon.com/bitterlakepresents/shop   READ THE WEEKLY TIR NEWSLETTER HERE: https://www.patreon.com/collection/1853497   Thank you guys again for taking the time to check this out.
