That was Keya Chatterjee from the Free DC movement interviewed on Democracy Now this week. As DC has been taken over by the Federal guards, citizens come out at 8:00pm to bang pots and pans. 8:00pm represent the 8 Districts in DC as a show of solidarity against an occupying force. People power can bring down dictators. WWII fascism started out as patriotism in defense of a country and then a slowly narrowing insider group as the manufacturing of domestic enemies became weaponized to crush dissent.
This episode was put together by Andre Zadorozny, Bee Traverse, Christian Overall, Rob Ferraz, and Stephen Perry.

Filton 24 (Stephen)
Armʼs Race features Ola and the expression of solidarity in Beeʼs opening set is because Ola is part of the Filton 24. The Filton 24 are a group of activists being incarcerated under a terrorism act in the UK. This application of the act has serious consequences for activism in a 2025 context of authoritarianism. Sarde has spoke with Ola and I asked Sarde to tell us about the Filton 24 situation. Hereʼs that conversation.
