171/ What is Happening with Balochistan? w/ Lateef Johar Baloch

For episode 171, Elia Ayoub (hauntologies.net/) and guest host Hari Prasad (www.hkprasad.com/) are joined by Lateef Johar Baloch (x.com/LateefJohar) , a human rights advocate and a member of the Human Rights Council of Balochistan to talk to us about the history of Pakistani oppression and authoritarianism in Balochistan and the ongoing resistance against it. We also talked about broader issues facing Balochistan today including the role of foreign powers such as China and the USA. Note: this was recorded on 24 August 2024, two days before the attack in Musakhel.

Isnt there some baluch also in iran? Im 15mins in but not heard anything about the Baluch people in iran

[@ChefbyMistake]

Iran don’t consider Baluch as native they consider Baluch from Africa, India and Arabia.
Iranians are Shias they hate them to the core and call them dirty outsiders.
