DESCRIPTION:A presentation and discussion with Manny Ness and Lisa Maya Knauer\nManny Ness provides an expert perspective of three key countries where workers are fighting the spread of unchecked industrial capitalism: China\, India\, and South Africa.

She has taught a variety of classes on feminism and Marxism\, and gender and capitalism.

SUMMARY:Resistance and Solidarity Across the US-Mexican Border: 1946-2016
DESCRIPTION:A presentation by Gerardo Renique\nThis presentation will cover the history and political implications of the making of the waves of US-Mexican international policy for contemporary struggles for labor\, immigrant and civil rights across at the US-Mexican border region. We will look at the cross-border urban areas that depend on the same water\, air and other natural resources\, such as the broad expanse of San Diego to Tijuana metropolitan region. Significant consideration will be given to the tensions and contradictions generated by the uneven interdependence of capitalist development in the borderlands; the long history of solidarity\, struggle and resistance against racial and capitalist oppression waged by Native Americans\, Mexican Americans and the multinational working class in the region; and\, the potential of these developments for the political challenges posed by transnational capitalism and globalization in Mexico and the United States. \nGerardo Renique teaches history at the City College of the City University of New York is a frequent contributor to Socialism and Democracy and NACLA: Report on the Americas. His research looks at the political traditions of popular movements in Latin America; race\, national identity and state formation in Mexico. He co-directed with Tami Gold the video-documentary Frozen Happiness. Elections\, Repression and Hope in Oaxaca\, Mexico; and co-authored with G. Katsiaficas “A New Stage of Insurgencies: Latin American Popular Movements\, the Gwangju Uprising\, and the Occupy Movement” in Socialism and Democracy.
