Join Haymarket Books, and a coalition of partners for a discussion of the power of community-led research, education, & knowledge creation.\n\nThis is a panel discussion with speakers and groups whose deep commitment to work grounded in community, in liberatory processes, and in challenging injustice at its core, are deeply inspiring and so relevant for this moment. Speakers will share their wisdom, experience, and analysis as we think together about the ways that our work for justice is strengthened and deepened by truly embodying a commitment to community-rooted and community-generated processes --and what that looks like in practice.\n----------------------------------------------------\n\nAbout the groups:\n\nMakan is a Palestinian-led educational organization based in the UK.
