SUMMARY:Reading Antonio Gramsci's Prison Notebooks
DESCRIPTION:In these sessions led by Piruz Alemi\, we will 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. A Gramscian “Past & Present” approach is key to our work. \nThroughout these sessions\, we will attempt to connect our own cultures and life experiences with contemporary struggles such as those unfolding in the Woman\, Life\, Freedom movement in Iran. \nParticipation in previous sessions is not a requirement – all are welcome to join.

SUMMARY:Reading Marx’s Capital\, Volume I (third series)
DESCRIPTION:Covering Parts V through VIII of Capital\, volume 1 \nJoin us as we continue the close reading of Volume 1 of Marx’s Capital begun earlier this year\, guided by an experienced team led by Lisa Maya Knauer. This fall we will be reading Parts V through VIII\, covering Wages\, the Accumulation of Capital\, and the so-called Primitive Accumulation. Each week\, we recap the passages covered at the previous session\, introduce new material\, and open up a discussion. We read the more challenging sections together a paragraph or two at a time. Supplementary materials and/or questions for reflection are circulated prior to each week’s session\, and the conversation continues in the group’s Slack channel. \nLisa Maya Knauer has been involved with Marxist education in New York for her entire adult life\, and has taught a variety of classes at the MEP and its predecessors. Her current activist work focuses on immigrant workers’ rights and indigenous struggles for land and water. In her day job\, she is a tenured radical at a public university. \nReview our Privacy Policy

SUMMARY:Oppression and Resistance in New Chinese and Chinese-American Science Fiction
DESCRIPTION:Join us to read selections from the best of Chinese and Chinese-American science fiction. Over the last ten years\, authors have reached English-speaking audiences with exciting and award-winning new literature using the metaphors and methods of speculative and visionary writing. \nThe new wave of younger Chinese science fiction writers often brings exciting explorations of political and social themes. Alongside daring new scientific imaginations\, our selections this fall feature issues of anti-Asian violence and racism\, colonialism\, then and now\, and the cruelties of global capitalism\, often resulting in resistance to oppression.  Our selections truly merit the new tag of “visionary fiction.” \nOur reading group includes people steeped in the speculative fiction tradition as well as new readers exploring themes with us for the first time. The tilt of global economics\, scientific research\, and politics Eastward makes this fall’s theme timely. \nOur list\, still in formation\, tentatively includes: \nVagabonds by Hao Jinfang\, as well as her Hugo award-winning story\, “Folding Beijing” \nSelections from short story collections written\, translated or edited by Ken Liu: Hidden Planets\, Broken Planets\, and The Hidden Girl \nBabel\, by RF Kuang \nOur Missing Children\, by Celeste Ng \nSeverance\, by Ling Ma \nWe plan to experiment with a hybrid format. We will meet monthly for a longer\, in-depth discussion as we finish a book. This more typical book club may better suit you if you want to read on your own and then take part in an overall discussion of the readings. We will also continue our weekly ninety-minute meetings for those who can make that commitment. You can register for all or just the monthly longer sessions. \nConvened by Steve Backman\, long-time explorer of the visionary side of science fiction; member of the MEP leadership team \n
