Prospects for a More Coherent Left

April 9th, 2008 by DanielTucker

The Brecht Forum in NYC recently hosted a discussion with Autumn Brown, Max Elbaum, RJ Maccani & Ai-Jen Poo entitled “1968 Revisited: Prospects for a More Coherent Left” about current organizational forms. Brecht forum has been hosting an ongoing series of events “1968 Revisited” that are quite exciting and ambitious.

Here is the audio from this event. Here is a description:

Working through non-profits, autonomous collectives, small socialist and anarchist organizations, or as rank and file labor activists, today’s generation of anti-capitalist organizers is bumping up against the limits of existing left forms–just as the 1960s generation did under different conditions 40 years ago.

Come out for a evening of dialogue and debate featuring a panel of dynamic grassroots organizers and organic intellectuals representing various tendencies along the left political spectrum, as they discuss possible new strategies for effective left organizing.

Learning from past successes and failures, can we identify fruitful approaches for making a leap toward a more coherent radical movement in the next two-to-five years?
