Refusal of Work: The Writings of Harry Cleaver | Virtual

  • Virtual - RSVP for Event Link (map)

Refuse work. Revolt against capitalism. Read Harry Cleaver. In that order. Repeat.

Join editors Robert Ovetz and Kevin Van Meter for a discussion of Points of Departure: Refusal of Work and the Crisis of Capitalism: The Collected Writings of Harry Cleaver, a definitive collection of Harry Cleaver’s best unpublished, translated, or lesser known writings – both historical and current – on the refusal of work, class composition, and the “inversion of the class perspective.” The book puts essential theoretical weapons into the hands of a new generation of militant workers and organizers re-energizing the class struggle. In these essays, Cleaver rereads Marx to advance our collective search for points of departure from capitalism, so we can end it before it ends us.
