LPE NYC is delighted to be a co-sponsor in bringing Ruth Wilson Gilmore to NYU on September 5th at 6pm! (update: the panel will start at 6:15pm but there will be a mini-reception before beginning at 5:30pm)
We will be kicking off the school year with our “Dismantling Racial Capitalism” series featuring Ruth Wilson Gilmore, a renowned scholar and activist whose work has profoundly influenced debates on prison abolition, racial justice, and geography. She will be in conversation with Laura Y. Liu from The New School and Angeles Solis from The Action Lab about the systemic issues of racial capitalism and the transformative power of abolitionist movements.
This event, part of the “Dismantling Racial Capitalism” series, aims to enrich our understanding of racial capitalism, its impact, and how we can challenge it. It offers a unique platform for academics, organizers, policymakers, and change-makers to delve into racial capitalism’s role in fostering inequality and to strategize for actionable change.
