Overcoming Racism: A Radical Approach

Is racial conflict inevitable in a multi-racial society? Or is it the product of social and economic conditions—past and present—that can be understood and reversed?

This two-part class will use works by writers of color, feminists and radicals to explore these questions and the important leadership role of people of color in all the social justice movements. The challenges and rewards of organizing across color lines as well as various political approaches to accomplishing this will be discussed.

Tonight's discussion focuses on "Autonomy or separatism: Which road for people of color?"--An examination of the need for independent organizing and the implications of a separatist solution.

$2 donation requested per session. Reading materials available at a nominal cost.

Snacks available at 6:30pm for a $6 donation.

Public class runs on Tuesdays, March 13-May 8 (no meeting on May 1).
