Description
“Life isn't absurd! Some people give their lives for freedom." The coming-of-age experience can be an especially terrifying time, but when you're navigating your teenage years against the backdrop of political unrest and revolution, every decision you make becomes a political one. This week The Wives Colangelo are talking about Marjane Satrapi's PERSEPOLIS and discussing what it means to be punk in the face of oppression, having an identity crisis, and the importance of consuming international media as a means of unlearning propaganda. ----- Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom ------- Article Referenced What's On: 'Persepolis' depicts a world in which the personal is always political
