Tis the season where we needed a good word from Bill Ayers, and this book of essays fits the bill. Join us for an intimate night discussing activism, and the future of contextualizing abolition in as entire framework.
This is a ticketed event! RSVP for ticket info.
"In combining his decades-long experience as an activist with his impressive erudition, Bill Ayers's most recent book offers us the best possible framework for formulating the central questions of our time and for seeking answers with the most transformative potential."
--Angela Davis
"Bill Ayers is a lifelong freedom fighter, teacher, and truth teller. His decades of fearless advocacy for the downtrodden stem from a deep well of compassion and laser-sharp revolutionary analysis. His wisdom and insight are on full display here."
--Tom Morello, justice activist and guitarist for Rage Against the Machine, Audioslave, and Prophets of Rage
Bill Ayers, Distinguished Professor of Education and Senior University Scholar at the University of Illinois at Chicago (retired), has written extensively about social justice and democracy, education and the cultural contexts of schooling, and teaching as an essentially intellectual, ethical, and political enterprise. His books include A Kind and Just Parent; Fugitive Days: A Memoir; Public Enemy: Confessions of an American Dissident; and "You can't fire the bad ones!" And 18 other Myths about Teachers, Teachers' Unions, and Public Education.
