REVOLUTION BOOKS BOOK CLUBS
SUNDAYS 6:30PM
1. "From Ike to Mao and
Beyond: My Journey from Mainstream America to
Revolutionary Communist"
by Bob Avakian
description:
Bob Avakian has written a memoir containing three unique but interwoven stories.
The first tells of a white middle-class kid growing up in '50s America who goes to
an integrated high school and has his world turned around; the second of a young man
who overcomes a near-fatal disease and jumps with both feet into the heady swirl of
Berkeley in the '60s; and the third of a radical activist who matures into a tempered
revolutionary communist leader. If you think about the past or if you urgently care
about the future ... if you want to hear a unique voice of utter realism and deep
humanity ... and if you dare to have your assumptions challenged and your stereotypes
overturned ... then you won't want to miss this book.
discussions in Seattle:
October 16, 30, November 13, 27, December 11 (every other sunday)
6:30pm, Revolution Books 1833 Nagle Pl on Capitol Hill
2. "Marxism and the Call of the Future:
Conversations on Ethics, History, and Politics" by Bill Martin &
Bob Avakian, intros by Slavoj Zizek & Raymond Lotta
description:
Bill Martin is a radical professor of philosophy and maverick social
theorist. Bob Avakian is a visionary communist thinker and
revolutionary leader. They both reject the fashionable claim that
the "triumph" of capitalism forecloses the possibility of radical
change. These lively conversations between Avakian and Martin
probe a wide range of issues: the place of ethics in politics; the
Maoist experience in China; sustainable agriculture and today's
lopsided economic development; the post-9/11 agenda of the U.S. ruling
class; Marxism and homosexuality; secularism and religion; and animal
rights. A major theme running through tis dialogue is the
relationship between materialism and ethics.
discussions in Seattle:
October 23, November 6, 20, December 4, 18 (every other sunday)
6:30pm, Cafe Vivace 901 E Denny Way on Capitol Hill
