Description

The Reality Dysfunction Platform is the latest in unapologetic, thought-provoking discourse on Xicano identity, resistance, and liberation. Through podcasts, essays, and dialogue, we challenge conventional narratives, confront colonial legacies, and amplify voices committed to social transformation. Whether exploring cultural politics, insurgent theory, or grassroots organizing, The Reality Dysfunction Platform is where radical thought meets real-world action. #Control the Narrative. #Resist the Dysfunction.
