Red Braid--A Separate Star: Politics and Strategy for Anti-Capitalist, Anti-Colonial, and Anti-Imperialist Struggle
Book launch and discussion hosted by Unity & Struggle
Please join former members of Red Braid Alliance for Decolonial Socialism for a discussion on the occasion of the publication of A Separate Star.
A wide-ranging book, A Separate Star: Politics and Strategy for Anti-Capitalist, Anti-Colonial, and Anti-Imperialist Struggle records the thinking behind the Red Braid Alliance for Decolonial Socialism’s ambitious five-year experiment in community organizing with the singular goal of building the revolutionary power of subaltern people.
The book compiles lessons from the frontlines of various struggles around housing and land defense & against displacement and policing—work that centered Indigenous people and “subaltern” layers of the working class from 2012-2021. Presenters will reflect on their work and the theoretical contributions that flowed from their practice: anti-capitalism, indigenous sovereignty, decolonization, revolutionary trans feminism, anti-imperialism; and the “braided” relationships between them all.
A group discussion led by Unity & Struggle will identify lessons and lingering questions that apply to our context in New York City.
