This video explores some of the ideas portrayed in Sara Ahmed's book The Cultural Politics of Emotion. The video highlights how her thesis that emotions are more cultural as opposed to purely psychological, can show the ways in which propaganda shapes perceptions of oneself, others, and the nation. Starting with an extract by Audre Lorde, the episode notes how political speeches can 'stick' to bodies, making them objects of hate and distrust.
