What Do We Want? Is a podcast about the weird, wild and wonderful things that draw social movements together… and drive them apart. We ask the tough and uncomfortable questions that keep orgizers for ecological, economic, social, gender and racial jutsice awake at night!
Drawing on co-host Sarah Stein Lubrano’s specialization in politics and the cognitive sciences and co-host Max Haiven’s writing on activism and the radical imagination, each episode shares research, stories and insights to help social movements and the people who care about them change the world.
The podcasts’ first season’s six episodes focus on heartbreak, conspiracy, despair, fantasy, shame and pleasure and special guests include Rachel Donald, Lola Olufemi, Brent Lee and Sophie Lewis.
What Do We Want is an initiative of Max and Sarah’s project Sense & Solidarity, a platform for radical social movements and their protagonists ot learn about ideology, psychology and how to change hearts and minds.

What Do We Want is written and hosted by Sarah Stein Lubrano and Max Haiven and produced and edited by Alastair Elphick. Music and sound mastering is by Daniel Gouly. The project has been supported by ​RiVAL: The ReImagining Value Action Lab and our many crowdfunding supporters whose names can be found on our website.
