We hope you’re ready to start the revolution, because Emily and Kyle are talking about the meaning and origin of the word agitprop.
Our hosts explore the role agitation and propaganda played in Russia during the rise of communism. They trace the paths of these words through Latin, English, and Russian, then explore the ways the Soviet Union propagated its ideals. They take a look at some communist poster design with that iconic 1984 look, and some dubious theater from Bertolt Brecht.
But this word doesn’t end with Soviet Russia. Emily and Kyle also chat about its modern use, with both propaganda and activism. They discuss how “agit” can be used to describe punk art and rebellious music, and how it also has a hidden meaning in Korean.
Join us every week as we explore the fascinating origins and meanings of words, uncovering the hidden stories behind language and how it evolves over time, for language enthusiasts and etymology buffs alike.
