SUMMARY:D4/D5/Ecosocialism Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:Join northeast Seattle comrades  Thursday 2/2 at 6:15 at Bulldog News for a discussion of “Naive Questions on Degrowth” by Kenta Tsuda from New Left Review. The author eloquently interrogates the notion of degrowth as promoted to address climate change. It is sure to inform our actions in response to climate and our continued reading of the book Half Earth Socialism\, to which we will return at the subsequent meeting. Bulldog News is staying open just for us–disregard google which will show them as closing at 6. \nYou don’t have to live in District 4 or 5\, and feel free to join the conversation even if you haven’t had time to read!  All are welcome.

SUMMARY:D4/D5/Ecosocialism Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:Join Seattle comrades at Cafe on the Ave\, 6:15 Thursday 12/15\, for a discussion of Nancy Fraser’s article from New Left review\, “Climates of Capital” . \nFraser argues that as political actors of multiple hues are turning green\, the political climate is turbulent. Safeguarding the planet requires disclosing the capitalist drivers of multiple strands of injustice and irrationality\, to develop a powerful counter-hegemonic project of societal transformation. Please support New Left Review by purchasing the article for approx $3.50 (in British pounds) or contact hildreth@seanet.com for assistance. \nYou don’t have to live in District 4 or 5\, and feel free to join the conversation even if you haven’t had time to read!  All are welcome.

SUMMARY:D4/D5/Ecosocialism Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:Join northeast Seattle comrades Thursday 11/3\, 6:30 at Urban Luxe Cafe for a discussion of  “Understanding what sustainability is not – and what it is” . The article explains that “Ecologically sustainable development”\, adopted by the UN WCED and other institutions as a guiding principle\, is impossible to implement. Instead “sustainable development” provides psychological comfort\, maintains the status quo of neoliberal capitalism\, and provides rewarding employment for the professional class. The article convincingly promotes sustainable eco-socialism on ‘spaceship’ Earth through relational application of the formula of “from each according to their ability to each according to their need”. \nYou don’t have to live in District 4 or 5\, and feel free to join the conversation even if you haven’t had time to read!  All are welcome.
