SUMMARY:Towards a Revolution in Labor History
DESCRIPTION:Norfolk\, Virginia shipyards\, built with chattel bond labor\nA reading of Theodore W. Allen’s unpublished manuscript\, “Towards a Revolution in Labor History\,” a text that challenges “the original sin of ‘white’ labor historiography\,” which according to Allen “lies in the misbegotten concept that excludes the Black bond-laborers from the ‘working class.’”\nIn this heretofore unpublished manuscript\, Theodore W. Allen\, author of the acclaimed The Invention of the White Race\, challenges a new generation of labor historians and activists to break from what he described as “The Great White Assumption … the acceptance of the ‘white’ identity of European Americans of all classes as a natural attribute rather than a social construct.” Allen maintains that this “assumption” has shaped the field of US labor history since the 19th century and “lies at the root of harmful omissions and distortions of the historical record\, which need to be criticized and corrected if the study of labor history is to contribute to the development of class consciousness of the American working class and a viable alternative to the ruinous policies of the ruling class.” We will read Allen’s manuscript along with selections from other works by Allen and other labor historians. \nConvened with Sean Ahern. Sean was radicalized as an NYC high school student between 1968-1971 and was drawn to activism in labor struggles in the 70s and 80s with the American Postal Workers Union and the Transport Workers. Sean lives on the Lower East Side where he grew up and went to school. Sean met Theodore Allen in 1971\, studied with him\, and helped to distribute “Class Struggle and the Origin of Racial Slavery: The Invention of the White Race” (1975)\, which served as a précis for The Invention of the White Race.

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:Capital's Terrorists in the Long Nineteenth Century
DESCRIPTION:A video of this January 28\, 2023\, event is available on the MEP’s YouTube channel.\n\nWith author Chad E. Pearson\nIn his new book Capital’s Terrorists: Klansmen\, Lawmen\, and Employers in the Long Nineteenth Century\, Chad E. Pearson details how US employers at the turn of the twentieth century deployed a variety of tactics to secure their power in and out of workplaces. Through the Ku Klux Klan\, Law and Order Leagues\, Stockgrowers’ organizations\, and Citizens’ Alliances\, they applied extralegal repressive techniques – including whippings\, kidnappings\, drive-out campaigns\, incarcerations\, arsons\, hangings\, and shootings – as well as less overtly illegal tactics such as shutting down meetings\, barring speakers from lecturing through blacklists\, and book burning. Driven by unambiguous economic and managerial interests\, the birth of law-and-order politics as we know it can be found in 19th-century campaigns of organized terror against an assortment of ordinary people across racial lines.\nBook available from online sellers and from the publisher\, University of North Carolina Press \nChad E. Pearson is a labor historian at the University of North Texas and author of Capital’s Terrorists and Reform or Repression: Organizing America’s Anti-Union Movement. He has published essays in Jacobin\, Counterpunch\, Monthly Review\, and other journals.

SUMMARY:First They Took Rome with author David Broder
DESCRIPTION:How the Populist Right Conquered Italy\n“David Broder has produced an excellent account of what has made modern Italy different but also similar to other Western European states. It begins back in the early 1990s when Italy was once more a pioneer\, in that it was the first Western democracy where an established and stable two-party system collapsed suddenly\, opening the way for a series of new political forces\, labelled populist\, to emerge spectacularly and suddenly.”    — Chris Bambery\, Counterfire \n Many commentators blame Italy’s malaise on cultural ills—pointing to the corruption of public life or a supposedly endemic backwardness. In this reading\, Italy has failed to converge with the neoliberal reforms mounted by other European countries\, leaving it to trail behind the rest of the world. \nFirst They Took Rome offers a different perspective: Italy isn’t failing to keep up with its international peers but farther along the same path of decline they are following. In the 1980s\, Italy boasted the West’s strongest Communist Party; today\, social solidarity is collapsing\, working people feel ever more atomized\, and democratic institutions grow increasingly hollow. \nStudying the rise of forces like Matteo Salvini’s Lega\, this book shows how the populist right drew on a deep well of social despair\, ignored by the liberal center. Italy’s recent history is a warning from the future—the story of a collapse of public life that risks spreading across the West. \nDAVID BRODER is a Rome-based writer and translator. He is the European editor for Jacobin and regularly writes with a focus on Italy\, including in the journal Internazionale. \nVerso has provided the following code (good through November\, 2021) for 50% off of First They Took Rome.
