March 12th/April 9th/May14th Marxist/Anarchist Discussion Group 6pm
Published by January 28th, 2008 in ACTIONS and NEWS. 0 CommentsMarxist/Anarchist Discussion Group: A reading and discussion group on Marxism and Anarchism will take place the second Wednesday of every month at 6 pm at the infoshop. The first meeeting was in February. The March 12th topic is the “Communist Manifesto” (please bring along a copy if you can). For April, we are reading and discussing Ernest Mandel’s introduction to “Das Kapital.” May’s topic will be determined tonight. Topics range from critiques of capitalism and the state to understanding social revolution. If Francis Fukuyama is right, we have reached the end of history with the advent of representative democracy (so-called) and the capitalist marketplace. Marxists and anarchists alike reject this argument. There are both fundamental similarities and differences in how Marxists and Anarchists see the future, and bringing these to light is the main goal of this group. There is no prerequisite for this discussion group (laughing), just a willingness to participate in an open forum in which divergent views are encouraged.
what is consent? how do you establish consent in an intimate encounter, while making out, during sex? how do you know when your partner consents? is verbal consent important? please come share in this discussion.
