“The Theory and Practice of Solidarity”: Mie Inouye in conversation with Daniel Martinez HoSang

An event in partnership with Boston Review!

Solidarity is a key word in struggles for a more just world – but what does it mean, and how can movements build enough of it to change society?

These are the key questions motivating Boston Review’s new issue, “On Solidarity”. The lead contributor to the issue is today’s speaker, Mie Inouye, who explores obstacles to solidarity and the paradox that emerges from solidarity being an essential component of struggles for justice, while actually existing injustice renders it impossible.

Mie will discuss her vision of coalition building and ways to achieve solidarity across difference with Daniel HoSang who will trace the main obstacles to solidarity back to neoliberalism, which splinters social relations and teaches us to express injustice in the language of personal grievance.You can find out more and register here.
