SUMMARY:The Time of Our Lives with Bryan Palmer
DESCRIPTION:Socialist Register 2021: Beyond Digital Capitalism series\nThe Time of Our Lives: Reflections on Work and Capitalist Temporality\nwith author Bryan D. Palmer\n For socialists time and its meaning and organization have always been a central concern\, if only because capitalism has placed such a premium on controlling time and subordinating it to its imperatives. At the current conjuncture\, time has become the challenge for socialists to address\, not only because it defines what does and does not constitute the working day\, but because it is increasingly obvious that time and its organization defines life itself. Will time continue to be compressed into capital’s needs\, or will it be reimagined as liberation\, struggled through and over in ways that enhance the project of human emancipation? \nWhat follows presents an argument about time that: 1) outlines how class struggles over time have been essential to the rise of the workers’ movement; 2) explores the complexity of Marx’s understandings of these conflicts and their tendency to be incorporated into capital’s project\, resulting in the intensification of exploitation; 3) locates E.P. Thompson’s writing on time and work discipline within the particular concerns and context of the 1960s New Left\, offering a suggestion of how this treatment of time extended orthodox Marxist understandings of primitive accumulation; and 4) closes by discussing how time and its meanings in twenty-first century capitalism demand a rethinking of positions\, espoused by Andre Gorz and others in the 1980s\, that associated the need for new policies around time with dismissals of the role of the working class in social transformation. Time\, always a frontier of class struggle\, has been pushed today to the forefront of contentious labor-capital relations. \nBryan D. Palmer is Emeritus Professor of History at Trent University\, Ontario\, Canada. He is also the author of Revolutionary Teamsters: The Minneapolis Truckers’ Strikes of 1934 and co-author of Toronto’s Poor: A Rebellious History. \n  \nThis presentation will begin at 11 PM and end at 1 AM GMT. \nAll events are sliding scale.

SUMMARY:Racial Boundaries: The Origin and Consequences of the Color Line in the USA
DESCRIPTION:4-week reading and discussion group\nThe Revolutions Study Group\nThis group is for for anyone who wants to better understand why White and Black retain their significance in U.S. society for so many years after the abolition of slavery. W.E.B. DuBois’ groundbreaking Black Reconstruction\, and the recent PBS documentary on the same subject are both useful for these discussions. However\, we are now taking on two readings which are keys to unlocking the power of the color line in shaping the political economy our world and in shaping the lives of African Americans. Theodore Allen’s pamphlet “Class Struggle and the Origin of Racial Slavery: The Invention of the White Race\,” from 1975\, explores why and how skin color became the basis of a rigid caste system in the U.S. DuBois’ The Souls of Black Folk is his first important book\, takes readers into the world of racial caste as uniquely experienced by African Americans. \nOur four week reading sources will be: Theodore W. Allen\, “Class Struggle and the Origin of Racial Slavery: The Invention of the White Race\,” first published 1975\, 34 pages\, available as printed pamphlet and a downloadable PDF (http://readsettlers.org/settlers-data/ii/02_THEODOREWALLEN_ClassStruggleAndTheOriginsOfSlavery_Somerville1976_p34.pdf)\, and W.E.B Du Bois\, The Souls of Black Folk\, 1903\, available in all formats including free e-book\, 189 pages\, in the 1989 Bantam paperback\, available in libraries \nAdmission is sliding scale.
