In this edition of Free City Radio we hear from Mohamed-Dhia Hammami, a PhD student and social activist from Tunisia focused on detailing economic injustice and labour union movements. Currently Mohamed is at Syracuse University and speaks in this exchange on the persisting systemic economic injustice in Tunisia post 2011 revolution. Importantly Mohamed places the recent events in Tunisia, the actions of President Kais Saied, who seized political power in what social movements in Tunisia define as a coup. Mohamed speaks about the ways that persisting political crisis in Tunisia is linked to the fact that all major political parities in the country haven't seriously addressed the neo-liberal economic policies in the country that were first put into serious practice during the Ben Ali dictatorship. Despite the undercutting of democracy in recent months, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken, recently spoke by phone with President Saied, providing political clout to a leader who established their current power within the context of a military coup. Thank you to Mohamed for joining the show and to Safa Chebbi for helping facilitate this interview. Music on the edition today is by Anouar Brahem. Free City Radio is hosted and produced by Stefan @spirodon Christoff
