Über diesen Titel

This episode traces a pattern across liberation movements: a single courageous act ignites wider resistance. Using examples from the 1970 Salinas Valley farmworker strike, Bayard Rustin and the March on Washington, the Paris liberation of 1944, and the 1970 Women’s Strike for Equality, it shows how everyday people transformed suffering into collective action.

The episode highlights how communities created sanctuaries of support, how leaders shaped nonviolent strategy, and how powerful actors tried to control narratives. It draws clear lines from historical struggles to present-day fights for dignity, labor rights, and sovereignty.

Ultimately, the episode argues that rights must be actively defended through solidarity, persistence, and strategic action—lessons that continue to guide movements today.
