SUMMARY:Darkest Los Angeles
DESCRIPTION:Film Noir\, Greed\, and Corporate Graft in LaLa Land\nA five-session reading group with novelist and scholar Dennis Broe\, presented by the Institute for the Radical Imagination and co-sponsored by the MEP\, LA Progressive and People’s World\nOrson Welles once called Los Angeles “a bright\, guilty place\,” and that is as true today as it was in the 1940s when Welles coined this description. Dennis Broe leads a group reading of his five Los Angeles novels* set in the film-noir period of the late 1940s and early 1950s. The contradictions we will unearth in that postwar period\, the period of crime films that visually documented this seedy reality\, have never been resolved\, only continually papered over\, and so they resound today. We will look at five industries and moments in this period with a view toward explaining how the postwar period set the tone for what was to follow\, leading to the present era of a vast income disparity and frequent “natural\,” though totally avoidable\, disasters. \n*The novels – Left of Eden\, A Hello to Arms\, The Precinct with the Golden Arm\, The House That Buff Built\, and The Dark Ages – are detailed in this syllabus. They are available from various online booksellers. \nDennis Broe is a professor\, journalist and novelist whose books include: Film Noir\, American Workers and Postwar Hollywood; Class\, Crime and International Film Noir: Globalizing America’s Dark Art; and Cold War Expressionism: Perverting the Politics of Perception. He has taught at The Sorbonne and is the Parisian correspondent for Arts Express on The Pacifica Network. Dennis also writes for LA Progressive\, People’s World\, Crime Time\, Culture Matters\, the British daily Morning Star and Monthly Review Online. His series of five novels is continuing with his latest\, Pornocopia\, about the corporate takeover of Las Vegas and the porn industry. Dennis has also just launched a new podcast\, Culture and Barbarism\, with Toby Miller. \nRegister for this class series at the Institute for the Radical Imagination

SUMMARY:LA Is Burning with Dennis Broe
DESCRIPTION:A recording of this February 15\, 2025\, event is available on our YouTube channel. \nPoliticians are blaming the destruction and loss of life in the Los Angeles wildfires on each other\, but the truth is the fires are the result of not even years or decades but centuries of neglect. Dennis Broe examines this history and sheds light on the ingrained power\, the structural class and racial imbalances\, and the wanton devastation of a city organized not for its people but for its elites. Using Mike Davis’s classic Ecology of Fear as a blueprint\, Broe will put the still smoldering fires in context by looking at five areas: the geological long durée of a land of fires\, earthquakes\, tornados and mudslides; the ecological relationship of the fires to ever more intense global warming; the neoliberal moment of the deterioration of the state in its domestic and global dimensions; the region’s sedimented class and racial inequalities (exemplified by the recently devastated African-American community of Altadena); and the altered character of Los Angeles–and especially “Hollywood”–as no longer simply a site of imagined disasters but one that is now all too real. \nDennis Broe\, a journalist\, critic and scholar who has taught at the Sorbonne and spoken at many MEP events\, is the author of many books on film noir\, media\, and television\, including five novels set in Los Angeles in the 1940s and 50s\, the latest of which is The Dark Ages\, about the coming of McCarthyism to Hollywood.

SUMMARY:Woman\, Life\, Freedom: Iran through the Lens of Antonio Gramsci
DESCRIPTION:With Piruz Alemi\nJuxtaposing documentary video footage with selected readings from Antonio Gramsci’s Prison Notebooks\, we will deepen our understanding of the current uprising among women and young people in Iran. Applying Gramsci’s dual perspective on Individuality/Universality\, Hegemony/Authority\, Force/Consent\, Terror/Legitimacy\, Strategy/Tactic\, Agitation/Propaganda\, and State/Civil Society\, we will examine spontaneous movements\, subaltern groups\, and the balance of domestic and international forces. These sessions will offer an opportunity for participants to document\, write\, screen films\, archive\, brainstorm\, and stay informed about the movement for Woman\, Life\, Freedom in Iran. They will be accessible to people at all levels of familiarity with Gramsci’s work and Iranian history and politics. \nConvened and facilitated by Piruz Alemi\, who holds a PhD in political economy from the New School for Social Research and an MFA in documentary film making from CCNY. He is director of the People of Color International Cultural Exchange Film Festival. He has taught at John Jay College/CUNY for 15 years and holds a research fellowship at Sheffield university in the UK.

SUMMARY:Diary of a Digital Plague Year with Dennis Broe
DESCRIPTION:Diary of a Digital Plague Year: Corona Culture\, Serial TV and The Rise of The Streaming Services with author Dennis Broe \nDENNIS BROE\, author of Birth of the Binge: Serial TV and The End of Leisure\, will be talking about his new book Diary of a Digital Plague Year: Corona Culture\, Serial TV and The Rise of The Streaming Services. The book offers a blow-by-blow account of the ongoing confinement\, charting the changes in our lives exacerbated by the coronavirus. Corona culture is a digital culture extraordinaire for some\, while for others it has increased panic and terror about being at work. \nThe privileged site for this exploration is serial TV and its new mode of delivery\, the increased power of the streaming services as they attempt to dominate and even throttle global media production in a neoliberal\, privatized attack on publicly financed film and television. The book charts this rise in short bursts that in toto illuminate these rapidly evolving changes in all our lives\, as Adorno’s Minima Moralia meets TV Guide.  \n The talk will touch on the year’s highs and lows including “John Brown’s Maid\,” on the travesty that was The Good Lord Bird; “Coming Undone: The Limits of MeToo” and Nicole Kidman’s power walks in The Undoing; and “Battling ’50s Apartheid One Monster at aTime” in the majestic Lovecraft Country. The year is also recounted in essays on film\, art\, books and Euro- and American Cultural Politics\, all the while asking how to turn this new phase of Digital Disaster Capitalism into a more liberatory (Virtual) Road Ahead. \nHere’s what the critics are saying: \n“With his latest masterwork\, Dennis Broe confirms what some of us already knew: when it comes to parsing and interrogating popular culture\, he has no peer.” —Gerald Horne\, author\, Paul Robeson:  The Artist as Revolutionary \n“Broe’s mastery of history\, economics\, and media let him provide details and insights that few other writers can match. These short\, readable essays offer convincing explanations of the moment in which we live.” —Julia Lesage\, Co-founder and editor of Jump Cut: A Review of Contemporary Media \n“Dennis Broe is one of the most acute critics working today. He has an astounding capacity to reach beyond a specific medium to give us wide-ranging yet deep social\, cultural\, and economic contexts. A triumph” —Toby Miller\, author of A Covid Charter\, a Better World \n “Broe’s blisteringly inciteful commentary isn’t just important\, it’s brave.” —From the Foreward by Redacted Tonight’s Lee Camp \nDENNIS BROE is the author of Birth of the Binge: Serial TV and The End of Leisure and Maverick or How The West Was Lost. His television criticism can be found at Bro on The Global Television Beat. His radio commentary can be heard on his show Breaking Glass onArt District Radio in Paris and on Arts Express on the Pacifica Network in the U.S. He is the author of two novels: Left of Eden\, about the Hollywood blacklist and A Hello to Arms\, about the postwar buildup of the weapons industry. He is currently teaching in the Masters’ Program at the Ecole Superieure de Journalisme in Paris\, has taught at The Sorbonne\, and was a full professor and director of the Media Arts Graduate Program at Long Island University in New York \n\nAll events are sliding scale—choose the level at which you choose to contribute to The Marxist Education Project.
