Precarity: Chicago presents Centering the Margin: Chicago Theory and Practice in Action
Thursday, May 1st at 1300 N. Western Ave, Chicago, Illinois 60622
What is precarity? Can Chicago activism benefit from it? - a new and irregularly held series that will explore and crystallize the Chicago progressive/radical community?s formulation of theory, strategy, and application. A central theoretical idea or topic will guide the discussion, with the intent of exploring what that idea/topic means to Chicago activism and whether there is a strategic usefulness to it. A social and friendly atmosphere will be stressed, where the intent is to foster non-hierarchical forms of debate and organization. Co-sponsored by Finding Our Roots, the Chicago Anarchist Film Festival, and the 49th Street Underground.
This event is to be followed by the Precarity launch party! Come to Quenchers for the official launch of precarity : chicago, a militant research collective devoted to linking the experience and resistance of the everyday to the broader struggle against capital and the numerous divisions it creates or exploits. More information about the night?s events TBA. Things like bands and prizes. A portion of the night?s earnings go toward Precarity : Chicago.
