Listen "The Dignity of Dissent - RwtH 023 - 08.20.2025"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Rowing with the Homies, I'm diving into a feeling that's been weighing on me: the exhaustion that comes from being watched and controlled. I'm exploring the blurriness between political protest and criminal activity, and how those in power use surveillance to make people feel helpless. We'll look at the story of a Texas state representative who refused to be monitored by police and how that act of dissent connects to my experience as a teacher in Florida, where our ability to strike is off the table. I'll share how the constant mental effort of trying to maintain my autonomy in a world that feels increasingly controlled can feel like a form of perpetual exhaustion, especially when you're also navigating depression. Join me as I grapple with a world that feels fundamentally unreliable and how that external unreliability can bleed into my own sense of self.
