Black Left Feminism and the Fight Against Fascism: Lessons and Assignments

Join us for a live streamed session from the Socialism 2026 conference, in Chicago. ——————————————————————— with Barbara Ransby, Sarah Haley Black feminist thinkers and organizers have historically generated our most powerful frameworks and resources for defense against the far right and for remaking the world. Today, as neoliberal conditions give rise to new fascisms and attacks on our people, the Black feminist lineage provides strength and direction for struggles across a range of contexts, from the arts to municipal politics, public employment, and higher education. The ongoing work of Scholars for Social Justice is one important site of Black feminist organizing that will be discussed in this session. ——————————————————————— Making sure that conference sessions are accessible to folks who aren’t able to join us in person is very important to us—but it also comes with a hefty price tag. While the entire live-streamed program will be available for free on Haymarket’s YouTube channel after the conference, please RSVP for our Socialism 2026 virtual program to access it live and make a donation to help us cover the associated costs! Please tune in and spread the word on social media. Live captioning will be provided for all live-streamed events.
