*Covid-19 Update* Non Serviam Podcast #16 | Dr. Michael Laufer - Anarchism In The Time Of Pandemic

This episode is the longest conversation we’ve ever released on the Non Serviam Podcast.
Be sure to share this with any radical who would enjoy a quarantine sized discussion on mutual aid and pandemics.
Stay clean out there y’all!

Before the turn of the year, in Wuhan China, an epidemic broke out that took the world by its grips. They called it the coronavirus, or COVD-19. From China to Iran, to Italy, and even the United States, the virus has taken thousands upon thousands of innocent lives.
As global supply chains threaten to fail us, as ordinary people continue to lose their jobs, and with few signs of the coronavirus slowing down, it’s difficult to not feel a bit anxious under the weight of a pandemic seemingly capable of tremendous destruction.
What caused it?
How can we stop it?
To what extent are states responsible for this mess?
Can anarchism bring anything useful to the discussion?

The slogan for this podcast is “radical voices in precarious times''. It’s possible that this episode captures the spirit of those words better than any other interview we’ve released.

Dr. Michael Laufer is the first person to appear twice on the show. He’s is the Director of the Institute for Autonomous Medicine, and the Chief spokesperson for the Four Thieves Vinegar Collective.
In this episode, we talk anarchism in the time of pandemic; we discuss how Four Thieves Vinegar Collective has responded to COVID-19, how states have responded to COVID-19, the importance of mutual aid, and even dabble in some post-pandemic forecasting.
