Beatrice, Dean Spade Session description: In a world unraveling under capitalism, climate catastrophe, and state violence, how do we build real care and solidarity? Dean Spade will discuss approaches to survival and resistance explored in his books Love in a F*cked Up World, Mutual Aid, and Normal Life—breaking through denial, confronting rising fascism, unlearning liberalism’s grip on our politics, rejecting the false promises of reform, and the urgent need to organize outside and against the state in order to cultivate community care in the face of collapse. Editor's Note: Beatrice's audio at the beginning is from backup audio, and gets better partway through the recording. Dean's audio is more clear and his presentation starts around 7 minutes into the recording.
