Literary Liberation 108 Episodes Aug 20, 2026

Literary Liberation is a podcast hosted by two Marxist feminists, Kristen and Mariah, who aim to spread the ideas of Karl Marx and other theorists through discussions of fiction. They criticize popular booktok accounts and other podcasts for lacking dialectical materialism and seek to combat Red Scare propaganda. The podcast covers topics necessary for achieving working class liberation from capitalism, patriarchy, white supremacy, settler colonialism, and more. The hosts identify as communists, not liberals, and call for workers of the world to unite.
