April 20th, 12 Noon Riot Act Books 127 Main St, Bing

One of Latin America's most dynamic radical thinker, Raúl Zibechi, and translator/popular educator George Ygarza Quispe are stopping by Riot Act books at noon on April 20th to discuss a new work, Constructing Worlds Otherwise: Societies in Movement and Anticolonial Paths in Latin America. The book surveys the most marginalized voices across Latin America—feminists, the Indigenous, people of African descent, and inhabitants of urban favelas and rural towns—Zibechi introduces the Anglo world to a range of critical perspectives and new forms of struggle in Peru, Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, and Bolivia. Constructing Worlds Otherwise comes at a time when the global left—struggling to expand its vision in an era of climate chaos and rising authoritarianism—finds itself at an impasse, desperate to animate and renew its critical imaginary.
