Welcome to our first episode of 2024! Joining us in the Greenhouse for an MLK Day special, we have Professor Hajar Yazdiha to discuss her book The Struggle for The People's King, a book that seems to have captured the entire spirit of everything we try to talk about here on Greenhouse Gaslighting when it comes to the strategic use of political rhetoric and social iconography, as well as the manipulation and distortion of collective memory when it comes to our shared history.
