From award-winning writer Sarah Schulman, author of more than twenty books including the classic Let the Record Show: A Political History of ACT UP New York, 1987-1993, comes a new book offering a brilliant examination of the inherent social challenges to solidarity movements and what it means for our future. Join us for a talk with Schulman about The Fantasy and Necessity of Solidarity led by Ashley Edwards. Schulman is one of the most astute social and political critics of our time. In this new work she unpacks the concept of solidarity in the face of inequality — unequal relations, resources, access, knowledge, and power — transforming our understanding of it as idea and practice. Don’t miss this special program on Sunday, September 14 at 2pm (note the 2pm time!), at The NewSouth Bookstore.
