EPISODE 09: AMBIENT MAGNETIC FIELDS (FT. A.M. VINCENT)

By this point in New X-Men, it's been one year since Cassandra Nova attacked Genosha, and more importantly, one year since the real-world attacks on September 11. So it comes as no surprise that Marvel and Grant Morisson released a comic on September 11, 2002, grappling with both of those anniversaries. Josie and Becca are joined by Professor Alana M. Vincent, an expert in genocide remembrance and author of the upcoming, tentatively-titled book Magneto Was Right, to discuss this serious storyline. There's a lot of content warnings in this one, folks, but we sincerely hope you'll join us for a thoughtful conversation about genocides and atrocities of all kinds. And also, y'know, whether Logan is hot. We talk about that too.

Available on Spotify, Apple, Pocket Casts, Amazon, and YouTube.

Content Warning: Discussions of genocide, the September 11 attacks, the Holocaust, Israel-Palestine conflicts throughout history, the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, apartheid, racism, fascism, transphobia
