Regardless of the election outcome, the struggle for radical positive change is set to continue. We face ongoing battles for Black liberation, economic equity, reproductive freedoms, healthcare, immigrant justice, indigenous rights, ecological regeneration, and more.
The next four years – and far beyond – offer opportunities to build on the incredible groundwork established by movements from Black Lives Matter to #AbolishICE, #MeToo to the fight to protect indigenous land and water.
In this post-election teach-in, we invite you to imagine and plot a revolutionary response to the U.S. Presidential Elections. Join Kali Akuno, Klee Benally, Shanelle Matthews, Adrienne Pine, and Marzena Zukowska as we demand much better than a return to the status quo!
Thursday, November 5th at 5pm PST / 8pm EST. Register here.
Organized by PM Press, Radical Communicators Network, American University Department of Anthropology, and California Institute of Integral Studies Department of Anthropology and Social Change.

Join co-editors and designers of Counterpoints: A San Francisco Bay Area Atlas of Displacement and Resistance in a conversation about the conceptual origins of the book and its relevance in the current local and global context of the pandemic, racial uprisings, and economic inequity. The discussion will focus on the design of the Atlas and chapter contents, and conclude with perspectives on how collaborative storytelling serves as a pathway towards resistance and hope.
The book combines work from within the Anti-Eviction Mapping Project (AEMP) with contributions from dozens of artists, organizers, scholar-activists, and residents from the Bay Area – from long-time community members who have been fighting multiple waves of racial dispossession to elementary school youth envisioning de-colonial futures. As an atlas co-created with community, Counterpoints expands knowledge on displacement and resistance in the Bay Area with, rather than for or about, those most impacted.
