Reading Marx in the Anthropocene
Reading Marx in the Anthropocene
An eight-week reading group centered on Kohei Saito's newly published Marx in the Anthropocene: Toward the Idea of Degrowth Communism, with some side glances at some of Saito's critics and at further elaborations of the notion of "degrowth communism."
Reading Du Bois’s Black Reconstruction
Reading Du Bois’s Black Reconstruction
A close reading over 10 weeks of W.E.B. Du Bois's classic work, Black Reconstruction, with Sean Ahern. The book provides a basis for a much overdue revolution in US labor history. As Du Bois so eloquently and bluntly put in in 1935: “The South, after the war, presented the greatest opportunity for a real national labor movement which the nation ever saw or is likely to see again for many decades. Yet, the labor movement, with but few exceptions, never realized the situation. It never had the intelligence or knowledge, as a whole, to see in black slavery and Reconstruction, the kernel and meaning of the labor movement in the United States.”

Reading Antonio Gramsci’s Prison Notebooks
We continue to study selected passages from Antonio Gramsci’s Prison Notebooks. We delve into key themes and concepts related to civil society and state: politics and the arts, racism, class and gender, religion, linguistics, and other methods of analysis, critical theory, mass media, and cinema, hegemony, and subaltern studies, as well as the role of intellectuals and activists in discovering new methods and languages to be transformative.

Summertime … and the Living Ain’t Easy: Black Noir
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 Chester Himes, Walter Mosley, Attica Locke, and Bill Fletcher Jr. - corruption in the workplace, in unions, and among workers.
