[Los Angeles] Facing the Climate Emergency: Capitalist Roots and Socialist Possibilities
With every day, the climate emergency grows more dire: burning forests, heating oceans, floods, unbreathable air. How is the climate emergency rooted in the capitalist system’s relentless quest for value and profit? How does the present era show the utter poisonousness of capitalism, which threatens the very existence of human life on this planet? How does its systemic crisis open up the possibilities for a truly anti-capitalist, liberatory future?
Speakers:
– David Black, author of The Philosophic Roots of Anti-Capitalism
– Lyndon Porter, Black student activist and writer.
