SUMMARY:Summertime … and the Living Ain't Easy: Black Noir
DESCRIPTION:The Marxist Education Project’s Literature Group continues its summertime tradition of reading noir fiction: the popular American crime genre that explores the corruption of society – and\, in our selected books by Black writers – corruption in the workplace\, in unions\, and among workers. “Mystery fiction written by Black authors is\, not surprisingly\, often very different from work in that broadly defined genre written by white writers.” –Black Noir \nWe will read these four books:\nIf He Hollers\, Let Him Go by Chester Himes\nA Red Death by Walter Mosley\nBlack Water Rising by Attica Locke\nThe Man Who Changed Colors by Bill Fletcher Jr. \nFull book descriptions and a reading schedule are available here. \nConvened by Jacqueline Cantwell\, who became involved with the MEP’s Literature Group because of her love of Victor Serge’s novels. Participating in an MEP reading group led by Serge translator Richard Greeman seven years ago\, Jacqueline found a community of readers eager to be challenged by the ambitions of international writers devoted to the creative potential of political fiction. Since the death of Michael Lardner\, who hosted and organized the Literature Group for so many years\, she has taken the lead in furthering the group’s goals of exploring international fiction and encouraging thoughtful conversation.

SUMMARY:"We're Going on an Adventure": Summer Visionary Fiction
DESCRIPTION:The MEP’s Science and Visionary Fiction Reading Group will read Adrian Tchaikovsky’s Children of Ruin this summer.  The catchphrase\, “We’re going on an adventure\,” signals the novel’s overlapping themes of contemporary significance–desperate efforts to escape war and corporate destruction on Earth\, species-level competition to make new homes elsewhere\, and the varieties and the social significance of artificial intelligence. \nAbove all\, the book continues the author’s exploration of empathy between his characters and with us\, his readers: “I wanted to write sections from the point of view of an octopus.” \nAs befits summertime reading\, we will add other selections as we go\, meshing these themes with the interests of the group.

SUMMARY:'The Man Who Changed Colors'
DESCRIPTION:A video of this June 3\, 2023\, event is available on the MEP’s YouTube channel. \n\nWith Bill Fletcher Jr\, activist/author/crime novelist\nWhen a dockworker falls to his death under strange circumstances\, investigative journalist David Gomes is on the case. His dogged pursuit of the truth puts his life in danger and upends the scrappy Cape Cod newspaper he works for. The Man Who Changed Colors delves into the complicated relationships between Cape Verdean Americans and African Americans\, Portuguese fascist gangs\, and abusive shipyard working conditions.\n“Bill Fletcher is a truth seeker and a truth teller – even when he’s writing fiction. Not unlike Bill\, his character David Gomes is willing to put his life and career in peril to expose the truth. A thrilling read!” – Tavis Smiley\, broadcaster and New York Times bestselling author \nBill Fletcher Jr has been an activist since his teen years. He has been active in workplace and community struggles and in electoral campaigns. He has worked for several labor unions in addition to serving as a senior staff person in the national AFL-CIO. Fletcher is a Senior Scholar with the Institute for Policy Studies and the former president of TransAfrica Forum. His books include a previous David Gomes story\, The Man Who Fell From the Sky\, and nonfiction works The Indispensable Ally: Black Workers and the Formation of the Congress of Industrial Organizations\, 1934-1941 (with Peter Agard); Solidarity Divided (with Dr. Fernando Gapasin)\, and ‘They’re Bankrupting Us’ and Twenty Other Myths About Unions. Fletcher is a syndicated columnist and a regular media commentator on television\, radio and the Web. \nBook available from Hardball Press.

SUMMARY:The Novels of Nanni Balestrini with the MEP Literature Group
DESCRIPTION:The MEP Literature Group resumes this fall/winter and continues its tradition of reading international political fiction. We will read several works by the Italian author Nanni Balestrini\, including We Want Everything and The Unseen. These selections are in honor of Michael Lardner\, an enthusiast of Balestrini’s writing and the convener of the MEP’s literature group for many years. Balestrini\, born in 1935\, had by the early 1960s an active literary career in Gruppo 63\, edited journals\, and participated in computer experiments. From literary spats\, he moved to political involvement during Italy’s Years of Lead (ca. 1968-1988). Upon being charged with membership in a guerrilla group he fled to Paris and later to Germany. We Want Everything chronicles a rebellion centered at the Fiat Mirafiori factory in Turin; The Unseen continues the story of Italy’s explosive 1970s when the young and unemployed of cities joined workers in an unexpectedly militant movement known simply as Autonomy (Autonomia). Its “politics of refusal” called forth draconian repression from the employers and the state. We will begin with selections of Balestrini’s poetry.
