Historical Roots and Political Strategy Reading Group–Spring Series

Tuesdays, 7-9 pm ET

Please bookmark and check this page again soon, or sign up for free now for our coming spring study series. We just completed an intensive overview of Mexican and Latin American peoples and struggles in the West and Southwest. We will soon announce plans for our next study series in US history and left political strategy.

We continue to have three points of reference: 

1. Sources, strengths, and strategies of recurring waves of popular struggle, beginning with the theme of “Abolition Democracy” introduced by W.E.B. Du Bois and now embracing Chicano liberation and other traditions of struggle. 
2. Evolving forms of reaction and repression, especially their roots in white supremacy and internal settler-colonialism. 
3. Reflections on the present conjuncture in the US, framed by evolving patterns of capital accumulation, immigration and pivotal struggles, set in the global political, social and technological context. 

We will make available a new syllabus while continuing to update our long-term bibliography of supplementary readings.
