Sai Englert speaks in this session recorded at Socialism 2024. This session was sponsored by Pluto Books.
Rich with their unique histories, characteristics, and social relations, Indigenous struggles across the world are connected by the shared enemy they face: settler colonialism. In this session, Sai Englert argues that settler colonial forms of domination and accumulation played a central role in the emergence of capitalism, and remain crucial in its reproduction and stabilisation today. Defeating settler colonialism is therefore also key to destroying the capitalist system as a whole.

Marx’s critique of political economy puts forward groundbreaking theories of freedom and unfreedom that are crucial for understanding capitalism and the capitalist state. We argue that socialists today should take up Marx’s critique of the market and his analysis of the dominating power of capital and capitalists.

Carewashing: Carcerality Disguised as Social Welfare
Mon Mohapatra, Victoria Law, Tracy Rosenthal, and Beatrice Adler-Bolton speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2024. This session was sponsored by Death Panel.
This session will explore how the rhetorics of “care,” support, and empathy are often deployed to expand and reinforce carcerality—to make carcerality appear innocuous, or even an expansion of social welfare and public health. Mon Mohapatra, Victoria Law, and Tracy Rosenthal will discuss how to evaluate and identify programs that disguise carcerality under the pretense of “care” and how carewashing can be resisted.
