Join us on October 11 at 6:30 pm for the Halifax launch of Why Don’t the Poor Rise Up?: Organizing the Twenty-First Century Resistance (2017, AK Press). The launch will feature a panel discussion focusing on the question of when, how, and under what conditions exploited and oppressed peoples rise up to create radical and revolutionary social change. Our featured panelists are Jackie Barkley, Brad Fougere, El Jones, Lynn Jones, Catherine Martin, and Ardath Whynacht. Volume editor Michael Truscello and contributing author Alex Khasnabish will also be in attendance and copies of the book will be available for sale. Free and open to all! Free refreshments!
