Lost Futures: The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas w/ Kurt Schiller

In this debut episode of our newest series on science fiction and futurism, the gang is joined by editor at Blood Knife Magazine and host of the Podside Picnic podcast, Kurt Schiller (@mechanicalkurt), for a discussion about Ursula K. Le Guin's rather short but famous 1973 story, The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas. Is it about exploitation under capitalism? Imperialism? That utopia is not possible or cannot exist without sacrifice and suffering, but only for a few? In the decades since its publication, writers, critics, teachers, and students have grappled over the morality of this succinct but perfectly vague story. Kurt helps us parse through its meaning as well as response stories, and we discuss his own piece on "Omelas" over at Blood Knife Mag. Tune in for this first episode of a series about what may have been and what can still be.

Socialist Feminism: Kollontai On Abortion

In the third and final edition of their Alexandra Kollontai mini-series, ELC presents her 1921 work, "The Labour of Women in the Evolution of the Economy." In addition to elaborating on the Soviet Republic's plans to support women in their dual roles as workers and mothers, she lays out her opinions on abortion, which the Soviet Republic became the first country to legalize in 1920. What can we learn from these essays, as well as from subsequent Soviet history? Is the language of individual rights something we can ever fully avoid when discussing abortion, the state, etc? The ELC crew discusses.
