Fund Drive Special: Capitalism, Enclosure, and Resistance
It\u2019s easy to view the last 250 or even 600 years as a relentless period of ascendant capitalism, conquering everything in its wake. But the work of historian Peter Linebaugh reminds us that resistance to capitalism was present at its birth and that working class movements for a better world have profoundly shaped our histories. Linebaugh recuperates the lives of some of those forgotten rebels, bringing their heady world and aspirations to ours, where we need them most.\nResources:\nPeter Linebaugh, Red Round Globe Hot Burning: A Tale at the Crossroads of Commons and Closure, of Love and Terror, of Race and Class, and of Kate and Ned Despard UC Press, 2019\nThe post Fund Drive Special: Capitalism, Enclosure, and Resistance appeared first on KPFA.
