Author and journalist Naomi Klein and writer and activist Astra Taylor join Historian David Olusoga to explore how apocalyptic visions of the future are working to justify the present-day costs of AI – from energy and water-hungry data centres to job displacement and mass surveillance. Naomi and Astra also trace the links between religious end-times movements, ethno-nationalism, climate anxiety, and anti-immigrant politics. They make the case for how we can resist, how communities are organizing across political divides, and why material improvements in people’s lives matter.
Join us to understand the alliances shaping the far-right Armageddon complex, and why we must choose solidarity and “hereness” over escape.
