SUMMARY:Reading Gramsci for Today's Movements
DESCRIPTION:Sundays at 11 am ET \nAn ongoing study group on the Prison Notebooks and other works of Antonio Gramsci. We explore Gramsci’s themes and concepts\, including state-civil society relations\, historical bloc\, hegemony\, spontaneity\, strategy and tactic\, and language. We follow Gramsci’s philological method\, addressing such areas as linguistics\, cinema\, critical theory\, literature\, journalism\, comics\, animation\, plastic arts\, mass media and Machiavellian political studies. We draw on Iran’s Woman\, Life\, Freedom movement and its documentary evidence\, along with other shared historical movements\, experiences and cultures in U.S.\, Iran and worldwide\, towards change and “What-ought-to-be.” \nNo prior knowledge of Gramsci is required. Session contributors lead the discussions on passages from Gramsci’s works and bring their own experiences\, philosophies and scholarship to our readings.  RSVP below if you wish to attend and we will send you the Zoom link. A suggested donation of $50 or whatever amount you can afford is welcome and appreciated. \n\nConvened by Piruz Alemi. Piruz has a PhD in Political Economy and an MFA in Documentary Film Making from City University of New York (CUNY). Piruz is an independent scholar-activist in Gramsci’s work and cultural studies\, with a focus on the common struggle of politics of race in the U.S. and gender segregation in Iran and the wider region.

SUMMARY:Celebrating 75 Years of Palestinian Literature - Final Series
DESCRIPTION:Three weekly sessions on Thursdays at 7 pm US ET\, Starting January 9 \nThe MEP’s months-long reading of Palestinian literature concludes in January with a reading of the recently issued memoir My Palestine: An Impossible Exile by Mohammad Tarbush. This highly praised memoir written by a man born during the Nakba and who died after completing this work early in 2024 covers the events that have been themes throughout our readings. Mohammad Tarbush was a key part of the national movement and his life displays the struggles and turmoil of his people. \nReading Schedule:\nJan 9 -Introduction\, Preface\, Chapters 1-7\nJan 16 – Chapters 8-14\nJan 23 – Chapters 15 to End \nThe Marxist Education Project Literature Group will continue reading Palestinian literature this fall. We will use our grief over the daily news reports of death and suffering to develop an understanding of Palestinians as more than victims of the moment\, but as a nation with a lively and broad-themed cultural response to colonial oppression. \nYou can also check out last fall’s now-completed syllabus here. \nAnd preview our February series featuring two novels from Burundi \nConvened by Jacqueline Cantwell\, who became involved with the MEP’s Literature Group because of her love of Victor Serge’s  novels. Participating in an MEP reading group led by Serge translator Richard Greeman seven years ago\, Jacqueline found a community of readers eager to be challenged by the ambitions of international writers devoted to the creative potential of political fiction. Since the death of Michael Lardner\, who hosted and organized the Literature Group for so many years\, Jacqueline has taken the lead in furthering the group’s goals of exploring international fiction and encouraging thoughtful conversation. \n
