The author of Class, Race, and Gender comes to DC on Sun., Dec. 10th, at 6 p.m.!
Class, Race, and Gender: Challenging the Injuries and Divisions of Capitalism is for those who want to understand the underlying connections among today’s social justice movements.
Bringing forth the basic operations of capitalist economies, it reveals what is driving many of today’s most urgent and vexing problems: the common origins of the inequalities of income, wealth, and power; environmental devastation; militarism; racism and white supremacy; patriarchy and male chauvinism; periodic economic crises; and the cultural conflicts that are tearing at U.S. life.
Michael Zweig illuminates all propositions with specific examples from U.S. history, from the first settlement of the New World to current life, including his own lived experiences as an activist, educator, and organizer over the past six decades. As such, the book is an urgently needed resource for activists and organizers seeking structural and moral transformation of life in the U.S. Building on his analysis, Zweig also presents strategies for political action in electoral and movement-building work.
This event is free and open to all. Our program begins at 6 p.m. and will be followed by an audience Q&A. Copies of the book will be available for purchase before and after the event. Please note that this event is IN PERSON and will NOT be livestreamed.
