Audio From A Collapsing State: A Conversation With Sarah Kendzior

Dispatches From A Collapsing State is an independent media venture and it depends on paid subscriptions to continue operating and growing. Subscribers gain access to exclusive content, such as the recent Q&A and the follow-up mailbag answering questions from the recent series, The Stakes (Links for Parts I, II, III, and IV). If you haven’t please subscribe to keep this project rolling.

This conversation was long overdue. The last time Sarah Kendzior and I chatted was at the beginning of the year and a whole, whole lot has changed since then. Here, we discuss growing authoritarianism, the state of American politics, the ideological and moral clashes over Gaza, and more.

Sarah’s book They Knew: How A Culture of Conspiracy Keeps America Complacent is now available in paperback. And you can find her writing on her Substack.
