SUMMARY:Black Marxism
DESCRIPTION:Black Marxism: The Making of The Black Radical Tradition\nNicholas Power\nEight more sessions beginning October 18 through December 6\, 7:30-9:30 pm \nAs always\, capitalism has crises. Again\, a new generation turns toward Marxism. How do we apply this wide ranging and controversial revolutionary tradition to our current times? Writer and professor\, Cedric Robinson╒s magnum opus\, Black Marxism will be our lodestar for this class. We will discuss Robinson’s critique of Marx’s Eurocentric frame of reference and explore how and if Marxism has value for today’s multi-cultural left which at times turns much to anarchism\, whether conscious or not of the Marxist tradition. We will also cover the Marxist legacy of C.L.R. James\, Langston Hughes and Richard Wright on their own and as Robinson studied their relationships to Marxism. \nNicholas Power is a poet\, journalist and Associate Professor of Literature at SUNY Old Westbury. His second book The Ground Below Zero: 911 to Burning Man\, New Orleans to Darfur\, Haiti to Occupy Wall Street was published by Upset Press in 2013. His writings have appeared in The Indypendent\, The Village Voice\, Truth-Out and Alternet. \nAdmissions are sliding scale. We do not turn anyone away if all they can pay is less or are without the ability to pay. $10 per session.
