Fight Together #6: Fascism & Tyranny (Patreon)

The One Piece Podcast presents an all new season of Fight Together. In this series we explore the major themes, stories, influences and ideas in One Piece, as well as the reverberations it has made in the real world. We do not shy away from the uncomfortable. We critique and criticize, and we explore topics that polarize. We hope you listen with open minds and open hearts.

On this first episode of our second season we have co-hosts Zach Logan, Shannon Strucci (video essayist, @struccimovies, Kim on @criticalbitcast @strugglesesh) Bryan Newton (animation director for Rick & Morty & Teen Titans Go) with special guests @ZeroReq011 (writer for Anime Feminist, Anime News Network, Crunchyroll and more), @EdwardEOnePiece (co-host on The One Piece Podcast and curator at @WeebTrailers) and @PaulaGaetos (Library Generalist, founder of The Tokusatsu Network and co-host of The Comfort Society Podcast). 

This month we discuss Fascism & Tyranny -- government and governance. How  real-life political figures, regimes, administrations, and nations have influenced Eiichiro Oda's One Piece -- and what characters/stories particularly resonate today.
