Is School Good? #4: Sam from Southpaw

In today's extra-long episode, Sparky and Pete discuss pedagogy, martial arts, and the respective values of tradition and freeform learning with Sam (@LiberationistMA) from the leftist martial arts podcast Southpaw (@Southpawpod). How can instructors express anti-heirarchical and liberatory values in their teaching? How can understanding activities like martial arts instruction - a common after-school activity for children in America and across the globe - provide insight into other forms of education?
