Dr. Lara Sheehi: The Case for Psychic Militancy | Sumud Podcast w/ Dr. Ed Hasan

🎙️In this episode of the Sumud Podcast, clinical psychologist and author Dr. Lara Sheehi joins Dr. Ed Hasan to discuss her book "From the Clinic to the Streets: Psychoanalysis for Revolutionary Futures" and the concept of psychic militancy. She explores how systems of power intrude upon the mind, normalize oppression, and bend reality, particularly in the context of Palestine. Drawing on Frantz Fanon and anti-colonial struggle, Lara challenges psychology’s neutrality and calls for an unbending, liberation-centered political commitment.
