SUMMARY:Creolizing Rosa Luxemburg: Unfinished Conversations with Revolutionary Women
DESCRIPTION:This series is based on the new Rowan and Littlefield volume edited by Drucilla Cornell and Jane Anna Gordon. All participating session leaders are contributors to the forthcoming\, Creolizing Rosa Luxemburg\, which will be available here: https://rowman.com/ISBN/9781786614421/Creolizing-Rosa-Luxemburg \nRosa Luxemburg is unquestionably the most important historical European woman Marxist theorist. Significantly\, for the purpose of creolizing the canon\, she considered her continent and the globe from an Eastern Europe that was in constant flux and turmoil. From this relatively peripheral location\, she was far less parochial than many of her more centrally located interlocutors and peers. Indeed\, Luxemburg’s work touched on all the burning issues of her time and ours\, from analysis of concrete revolutionary struggles\, such as those in Poland and Russia\, to showing through her analysis of primitive accumulation that anti-capitalist and anti-colonial struggles had to be intertwined\, to considerations of state sovereignty\, democracy\, feminism\, and racism. She thereby offered reflections that can usefully be taken up and reworked by writers facing continuous and new challenges to undo relations of exploitation through radical economic and social transformation. Luxemburg touches on all aspects of what constitutes revolution in her work; the authors of this volume show us that\, by creolizing Luxemburg\, we can open up new paths of understanding the complexities of revolution. \nThis six-part seminar series explores some of her signal contributions—her argument that imperialism and primitive accumulation are endemic to capitalism; her prescient attention to racist super-exploitation in southern Africa; her insistence that socialism had to be created in and through the widest form of participatory democracy\, including the mass strike; her reflections\, with attention to the other-than-human world and incarceration\, on transformative subjectivities—through putting them in conversation with Global Southern thinkers past and present. \n  \nUnfinished Conversations among Revolutionary Women\nPaget Henry\, Brown University; Sandra Rein\nMay 15th\, 2-4 pm USA DST / 6-8pm GMT\nSession Six stages conversations between Rosa and other revolutionary women with whom she could not have spoken\, including Paget Henry speaking about Sylvia Wynter and Claudia Jones\, and Sandra Rein will speak of the revolutionary legacy of Raya Danayevskaya. \nThe May 15 panel will be from 2 to 4 pm. \nAll events are sliding scale. No one is denied admission because of inability to pay. Please write info@marxedproject.org to get information on attending this series or any other event or class at The Marxist Education Project.

SUMMARY:Melancholia Africana
DESCRIPTION:The Caribbean Philosophy Association and The Marxist Education Project present \nMelancholia Africana: The Indispensable Overcoming of the Black Condition\nWith author Nathalie Etoke and conversation with fellow panelists Lewis R. Gordon and Souleymane Bachir Diagne\nThis year marks the publication of the English translation of Nathalie Etoke’s Melancholia Africana: The Indispensable Overcoming of the Black Condition. In richly poetic prose Etoke considers pain singing the happiness to come\, memories of forgetting\, and on va faire comment? She argues that Africana melancholy is distinct. Rooted in collective and historical experiences of enslavement\, colonization\, and neocolonialism marked by loss of land\, freedom\, language\, culture\, and self. Put differently\, expropriation of labor and of land also annihilated age-old cycles of life. Considering what to do in the wake of such annihilation\, Etoke explores how diasporic Africans reconcile that which has been destroyed with what is newly introduced\, framing this inherent tension as the character of Africana historical becoming. On October 30th\, Etoke will read from and speak about her newly translated work while Lewis R. Gordon\, who authored its new foreword\, and Souleymane Bachir Diagne will address the continued relevance of its searching diagnoses. \nNathalie Etoke is Associate Professor of Francophone and Africana Studies at the Graduate Center\, CUNY. Her articles have appeared in Research in African Literatures\, French Politics and Culture\, Nouvelles Études Francophones\, Présence Francophone\, International Journal of Francophone Studies\, and Journal of French and Francophone Philosophy. She is the author of L’Écriture du corps féminin dans la littérature de l’Afrique francophone au sud du Sahara and of Melancholia Africana l’indispensable dépassement de la condition noire\, which won the 2012 Frantz Fanon Prize from the Caribbean Philosophical Association. In 2011\, she directed Afro Diasporic French Identities\, a documentary on race\, identity and citizenship in contemporary France. \nLewis R. Gordon co-edits Rowman & Littlefield International’s Global Critical Caribbean Thought series.  He is Professor of Philosophy at UCONN-Storrs; Honorary President of the Global Center for Advanced Studies; the 2018–2019 Boaventura de Sousa Santos Chair in Faculty of Economics of the University of Coimbra\, Portugal; and Chair of Global Collaborations for the Caribbean Philosophical Association.  His public Facebook page is: https://www.facebook.com/LewisGordonPhilosopher/ and he is on Twitter @lewgord. \nSouleymane Bachir Diagne is Professor and Chair of French and Romance Philology at Columbia University and recipient of the Edouard Glissant Prize. He is the author of Boole\, l’oiseau de nuit en plein jour (a book on Boolean algebra); Islam and the Open Society: Fidelity and Movement in the Philosophy of Muhammad Iqbal; African Art as Philosophy: Senghor\, Bergson\, and the Idea of Negritude; The Ink of the Scholars: Reflections on Philosophy in Africa; and Open to Reason: Muslim Philosophers in Conversation with Western Tradition. An English version of his book\, Bergson postcolonial: L’élan vital dans la pensée de Senghor et de Mohamed Iqbal\, which was awarded the Dagnan-Bouveret prize by the French Academy of Moral and Political Sciences for 2011\, is forthcoming with Fordham University Press. \nAll tickets are sliding scale
