SUMMARY:Reading Mike Davis: Between Catastrophe and Revolution
DESCRIPTION:A series of readings to commemorate\, celebrate\, and learn from the ecological/Marxist writings of Mike Davis (1946-2022). Davis’s works spanned urban studies to history\, geography to political science\, and more. They have become crucial reference points for the production of new knowledge by generations of scholars\, artists\, and activists. During 10 weekly sessions we will read and discuss key chapters from five of Mike Davis’s books: Planet of Slums\, Dead Cities\, Ecology of Fear\, Late Victorian Holocausts\, and Old Gods\, New Enigmas. \nConvened by Fred Murphy and Steve Knight\, who have co-led the MEP’s Ecosocialist Study Group since 2016.

SUMMARY:Global Civil War: Capitalism Post-Pandemic
DESCRIPTION:Watch the video from this November 19\, 2022\, event on YouTube. \nWith William I. Robinson\nGlobal Civil War provides a big-picture account of how the coronavirus pandemic and new digital technologies have transformed capitalism and the entire global economy and society. Analyzing the concentration of power and control in the hands of corporate conglomerates\, tech giants\, megabanks\, and the military-industrial complex\, the book documents the extent of unprecedented global inequalities as the mass of humanity faces violent dispossession and uncertain survival. The book issues a dire warning against the emergence of a dystopic digitalized dictatorship but also finds great hope and inspiration in the burgeoning social movements of the poor and the dispossessed as humanity descends into global civil war. \nWilliam I. Robinson is Distinguished Professor of Sociology\, Global Studies\, and Latin American Studies at the University of California at Santa Barbara. Among his many books are Global Capitalism and the Crisis of Humanity (2014); Into the Tempest: Essays on the New Global Capitalism (2018); and The Global Police State (2020). \nGlobal Civil War is available from the publisher\, PM Press.

SUMMARY:Palm Oil: The Grease of Empire
DESCRIPTION:A video of this October 29\, 2022\, event is available on the MEP’s YouTube channel. \nIt’s in our food\, our cosmetics\, our fuel and our bodies. Palm oil\, found in half of supermarket products\, has shaped our world. Max Haiven uncovers how the gears of capitalism are literally and metaphorically lubricated by this ubiquitous elixir. With a sweeping\, experimental narrative\, Haiven takes us on a global journey that includes looted treasures\, the American system of mass incarceration\, the history of modern art and the industrialisation of war. Beyond simply calling for more consumer boycotts\, Haiven argues for recognising in palm oil humanity’s profound potential to shape our world beyond racial capitalism and neo-colonial dispossession. \nMax Haiven is a writer and teacher and Canada Research Chair in Culture\, Media and Social Justice. His most recent books are Art after Money\, Money after Art: Creative Strategies Against Financialization (2018) and Revenge Capitalism: The Ghosts of Empire\, the Demons of Capital\, and the Settling of Unpayable Debts (2020). Max also edits VAGABONDS\, a series of short\, radical books from Pluto Press. He teaches at Lakehead University\, where he co-directs the ReImagining Value Action Lab (RiVAL).

SUMMARY:Rethinking Alternatives with Marx: Economy\, Ecology and Migration
DESCRIPTION:Himani Bannerji\, Michael Brie\, Gregory Claeys\, and Silvia Federici with editor Marcello Musto\n \nThis book presents a Marx that is in many ways different from the one popularized by the dominant currents of 20th century Marxism. The dual aim of this collective volume is to contribute to a new critical discussion on Marx’s critique of political economy and to develop a deeper analysis of certain questions\, like ecology and migration\, to which relatively little attention has been paid until recently. \nContributions of globally renowned scholars\, from nine countries and multiple academic disciplines\, offer diverse and innovative perspectives on Marx’s points of view about ecology\, migration\, gender\, the capitalist mode of production\, the labour movement\, globalization\, social relations\, and the contours of a possible socialist alternative. \nOrder the book here: https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-030-81764-0 \nThis event is sponsored by the Marxist Education Project\, Shelter & Solidarity\, The Community Church of Boston\, Encuentro5\, Hardball Press\, and Socialism & Democracy

SUMMARY:The Invention of the White Race
DESCRIPTION:A reading and discussion of Theodore W. Allen’s two volume work\nwith The Revolutions Study Group\nIn 1972\, after a lifetime of activism in the labor and communist movements\, Theodore W. Allen shared the following strategic insight with a new generation of revolutionaries: “The most vulnerable point at which a decisive blow can be struck against bourgeois rule in the U.S. is white supremacy. White supremacy is both the keystone (in the arch) and the Achilles heel of U.S. bourgeois democracy\, the historic form of bourgeois rule in the US.] \n \nIt is a vulnerable point because it is a historically developed and unresolvable internal contradiction of US bourgeois democracy. It is the decisive vulnerable point because—as history has repeatedly proved—the basic class contradictions in bourgeois democracy can never fully mature until and unless the anti-proletarian nature of white supremacy has been completely established in the minds of the proletarian masses.” \nTheodore W. Allen spent the next 30 years researching the primary sources and writing The Invention of the White Race (2 volumes) which provides a historical materialist analysis of racial oppression and the white identity which emerged as a principal form of social control over rebellious laboring class of European and Africans in the pattern setting colonies of Virginia and Maryland in the late 17th early 18th century. \nThe Revolutions Study Group (started at the Brecht Forum) has met since 2009. The group has recently completed an in-depth study of W.E.B. Dubois’ Black Reconstruction and this past winter and spring studied White Supremacy and Bourgeois Social Control.

SUMMARY:The Invention of the White Race
DESCRIPTION:A reading and discussion of Theodore W. Allen’s two volume work\nwith The Revolutions Study Group\nIn 1972\, after a lifetime of activism in the labor and communist movements\, Theodore W. Allen shared the following strategic insight with a new generation of revolutionaries: “The most vulnerable point at which a decisive blow can be struck against bourgeois rule in the U.S. is white supremacy. White supremacy is both the keystone (in the arch) and the Achilles heel of U.S. bourgeois democracy\, the historic form of bourgeois rule in the US.] \n \nIt is a vulnerable point because it is a historically developed and unresolvable internal contradiction of US bourgeois democracy. It is the decisive vulnerable point because—as history has repeatedly proved—the basic class contradictions in bourgeois democracy can never fully mature until and unless the anti-proletarian nature of white supremacy has been completely established in the minds of the proletarian masses.” \nTheodore W. Allen spent the next 30 years researching the primary sources and writing The Invention of the White Race (2 volumes) which provides a historical materialist analysis of racial oppression and the white identity which emerged as a principal form of social control over rebellious laboring class of European and Africans in the pattern setting colonies of Virginia and Maryland in the late 17th early 18th century. \nThe Revolutions Study Group (started at the Brecht Forum) has met since 2009. The group has recently completed an in-depth study of W.E.B. Dubois’ Black Reconstruction and this past winter and spring studied White Supremacy and Bourgeois Social Control.

SUMMARY:New York City and the Experience of Modernity\, Fall session
DESCRIPTION:An eight week series featuring visual and oral presentations along with discussions each week. Please note that this will be on Tuesdays\, not Fridays. TWO MORE WEEKS \nConvened by Thomas Wensing\nIn the year 1877\, the signals were given for the rest of the century; the black would be put back; the strikes of white workers would not be tolerated; the industrial and political elites of North and South would take hold of the country and organize the greatest march of economic growth in human history. They would do it with the aid of\, and at the expense of\, black labor\, white labor\, Chinese labor\, European immigrant labor\, female labor\, rewarding them differently by race\, sex\, national origin\, and social class\, in such a way as to create separate levels of oppression – a skillful terracing to stabilize the pyramid of wealth”[1] \nThis is a seminar about New York City and its people. It is not a study of architectural styles and objects\, – although the physical stuff of cities does play a role -\, but it is a course about the experience of the way in which modernity builds and destroys cities. In the previous course we saw how the idea of modernity originated in eighteenth-century Western Europe during the Age of Enlightenment. In this course we explore how modernity is not only an expression of the constellation of forces that builds modern societies\, but from the onset has been an exclusionary project along racial\, gender and class lines. \nEurope produced\, in the words of Stuart Hall\, a cultural identity which portrayed Europe as a distinct\, unique and triumphant civilization[2]. The construction of otherness within the dominant European culture itself\, and in relation to the exploration and conquest of the Americas\, formed the pretext for native displacement and genocide\, environmental exploitation and extractivism\, oppression and slavery. These discourses of “self” and “otherness” are\, of course\, inextricably interwoven with the history of New York City\, and have always been contested. \nThis semester turns to the late 19th and 20th century and focuses on the way in which the building of New York City took place in an arena of contesting political\, cultural and economic forces; that of the dominant\, patriarchal\, Anglo-Saxon\, male\, capitalist culture on one side\, and that of the excluded social groups on the other. We will look at various groups\, whether it be socialist\, communist\, feminist\, black\, or queer\, which questioned the ‘centeredness’ of the West\, – and the structures of oppression it built -\, and which thus argued for the project of Reason and liberal democracy to be expanded and fulfil its promise. \nWriters and novelists have been able to direct the gaze at these groups which have been excluded from the path of progress\, – as it was defined and constricted by society – to express diverging meanings to life in the metropolis. Theirs were often minority views\, but in expressing them\, they were able to carve out space for the ‘other’\, and they have expanded the conversation and imagination in indelible ways. A question which looms large in this seminar is the relationship between individual agency and collective action. The seminar encourages the expression of personal\, familial\, local\, and ethnic explorations and to tie these to larger societal trends. [3] The participants will be presented with multiple views of the same topic; one drawn from the professional literature\, – either historical\, architectural\, sociological\, or drawn from literary studies -\, and one from fiction or biography. Two points of view are compared: that of sociologists\, urban planners\, geographers\, and architects\, with that of the subjective vantage point of the biographical account or the fictional character. \nWeekly Lectures and Bibliography: \nEach week consists of readings\, one lecture class and one group discussion\, preceded by a 20-minute introduction on the topic. \n[1] Zinn\, Howard.

SUMMARY:Re:sources / Re:lations with Working Group on Globalization and Culture
DESCRIPTION:The Yale Working Group on Globalization and Culture will share our collective research on two ubiquitous words of our contemporary vocabulary: resources and relations. There was a meeting on May 16 (described below in thematic Clusters One)  and the next meeting will take place on June 6. \nThe current WGGC collective of Aanchal Saraf\, Bench Ansfield\, Clara Wilson-Hawken\, Ever Osorio\, Jessica Marion Modi\, Lucero Estrella\, Maru Pabón\, Michael Denning\, Monique Flores Ulysses\, Peter Raccuglia\, Salonee Bhaman\, and Simon Torracinta — work in American studies\, African-American studies\, Latinx studies\, history\, literary criticism\, science and technology studies\, and women’s\, gender and sexuality studies. WGGC will share their collective research on two ubiquitous words of our contemporary vocabulary: resources and relations. \nTHEMATIC CLUSTERS ONE: On Sunday May 16\, we will present the first two clusters\, Affordances for Whom? Making and Unmaking Resources\, and Language as Resource and Relation. The first part explores how land\, nature\, people\, and time are conceived of and transformed into “resources”: depictions of land as a resource for migrants\, and of migrants for empires; of Indigenous land as a resource for extraction and settlement; and of time as an abstract resource for leisure in the twentieth century. The second part examines language\, poetry\, and political slogans as resources and relations from post-emancipation Black cultures to contemporary Mexican feminisms. How do the abstractions of the category of “resource” – enforced by states\, settlers\, or science – change the meanings of concrete things? Who gets to define how and for whom resources are made? \nTHEMATIC CLUSTERS TWO: On Sunday June 6\, we will present the final two clusters: Source Memory: Relating Archival Contradictions and The Relations of Human Resources. The first part offers disparate meditations on the complex process of engaging with archival sources. Cohering around the verb “relate” – which means both to form an affinity or kinship with and to narrate a story – we take up stories of a record producer in everything but her own words\, of an immigration bureaucracy’s interrogation of a man and his family\, and of the piecing together of family histories in the intergenerational wake of an earthquake. Our final cluster probes the half-lives of human resources\, from the origins of the discourse of human resources\, to the depletion of inner resources and the politics of “burnout\,” to the valuations of risk and life within viatical insurance in a pandemic. \nThe Working Group on Globalization and Culture http://wggc.yale.edu/ is an interdisciplinary cultural studies laboratory that has been practicing collective research at Yale University since 2003. Over the years\, we have presented work at numerous cultural studies conferences as well at The Marxist Education Project\, the Left Forum\, Occupy Boston\, and the World Social Forum. Projects have been published as “Going into Debt\,” online in Social Text’s Periscope\, and as “Spaces and Times of Occupation” in Transforming Anthropology; a collective interview regarding “Matters of Life and Death” appeared in Revue Française d’Études Américaines. \nAll events are sliding scale. No one is denied admission for inability to pay. Write to info@marxedproject.org to get what you need to attend these events or any other classes or events. We do record all events and classes. \n  \nFor all those who are attending June 6 who would like to listen to the presentations from May 16\, please write to info@marxedproject.org and request that the recording be sent to you via email. \n.
