SUMMARY:The Paris Commune: A New History
DESCRIPTION:A video of this March 13\, 2023\, event is available on the MEP’s YouTube channel. \nCarolyn J. Eichner and Mitch Abidor discuss Eichner’s new book\, The Paris Commune: A Brief History. Her compelling account “makes a complicated event understandable and vivid. Eichner’s rich portraits bring to life the freedom and empowerment the Communards experienced\, juxtaposed with the bloody repression of its final days.” (Sarah Fishman\, author of From Vichy to the Sexual Revolution: Gender and Family Life in Postwar France) \nAt dawn on March 18\, 1871\, Parisian women stepped between cannons and French soldiers\, using their bodies to block the army from taking the artillery from their working-class neighborhood. When ordered to fire\, the troops refused and instead turned and arrested their leaders. Thus began the Paris Commune\, a 72-day conflict that ended with the ferocious slaughter of communards by French troops. The Commune stands as a critical and pivotal moment in nineteenth-century history\, as the linchpin between revolutionary pasts and futures\, and as a crucible allowing glimpses of alternate possibilities. Upending hierarchies of class\, religion\, and gender\, the Commune emerged as a touchstone for the subsequent century-and-a-half of revolutionary and radical social movements. \nCarolyn J. Eichner teaches in the Departments of History and Women’s & Gender Studies at the University of Wisconsin\, Milwaukee. Her books include Surmounting the Barricades: Women in the Paris Commune and Feminism’s Empire. \nMitch Abidor is the editor and translator of Voices of the Paris Commune and Communards. A contributing writer for Jewish Currents\, his articles have also appeared in the New York Times\, the New York Review of Books\, Dissent\, and many other publications. \n  \nThe Paris Commune: A Brief History is available from Rutgers University Press.

SUMMARY:Iran Awakening II: More Novels by Iranian Women
DESCRIPTION:I speak from the deep end of night.\nOf end of darkness I speak.\nI speak of deep night ending.\n – From “The Gift” by Forugh Farrokhzad\nThe spring 2023 series of the MEP Literature Group continues to focus on Iranian women writing since the 1978-79 Revolution whose stories are set inside Iran. We have compiled a reading list from an essay by Niloufar Talebi\, “100 Essential Books by Iranian Writers: An Introduction & Nonfiction\,” published on the Asian American Writers’ Workshop website. As we read\, one question we will keep in mind is that posed by Talebi: How does the publishing market limit Americans’ understanding of Iranian efforts? \nOver eight weeks we will read novels set in the period since the 1979 revolution. More information… \nEveryone is welcome!

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:Peru: Crisis and Uprising
DESCRIPTION:Banners read\, “They all must go! Jail the murderers! Elections now! Not one more death! Out with Dina Boluarte! Down with the racist civil-military dictatorship! Shut down Congress! For a people’s constituent assembly!”\nA video of this February 22\, 2023\, event is available on the MEP’s YouTube channel. \nA deepgoing political crisis is shaking Peru\, with massive protests by working people in the countryside and cities\, murderous repression by the armed forces and police\, and desperate efforts to restore order by a widely hated right-wing Congress and an unelected president\, Dina Boluarte. Women and Quechua and Aymara people from the Andean countryside and interior cities are taking a leading role in demanding that Boluarte and the Congress resign and that a democratic constituent assembly be convened to enable a government that represents Peru’s diversity rather than the exploitative\, racist elites of Lima. Join us as Peruvian left activist and sociologist Nicolás Lynch reports on and analyzes these dramatic events direct from Lima. Historian Gerardo Rénique moderates and joins the conversation. \nNicolás Lynch has published many books and essays on Peruvian politics and history. He has taught at the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos in Lima and has served as Peru’s Minister of Education and as Ambassador to Argentina. Lynch holds a Ph.D. in sociology from the New School for Social Research. \nGerardo Rénique taught Latin American history for many years at the City College of New York. He is a frequent contributor to Socialism and Democracy and NACLA: Report on the Americas. His research interests include the political traditions of popular movements in Latin America\, and race\, national identity and state formation in Mexico.

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:Iran Awakening: Novels by Iranian Women
DESCRIPTION:I speak from the deep end of night.\nOf end of darkness I speak.\nI speak of deep night ending.\n – From “The Gift” by Forugh Farrokhzad\nThe winter 2023 series of the MEP Literature Group focuses on Iranian women writing since the 1978-79 Revolution whose stories are set inside Iran. We have compiled a reading list from an essay by Niloufar Talebi\, “100 Essential Books by Iranian Writers: An Introduction & Nonfiction\,” published on the Asian American Writers’ Workshop website. As we read\, one question we will keep in mind is that posed by Talebi: How does the publishing market limit Americans’ understanding of Iranian efforts? \nOver nine weeks we will read three novels set from the 1920s to the present: The Gardens of Consolation\, by Parisa Reza; Women Without Men\, by Shahrnush Parsipur; and Man of My Time\, by Dalia Sofer. In Part II\, our spring session\, we will begin with a novel set in 1979 and end with a novel set in contemporary Iran. More information… \nEveryone is welcome!

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: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.
