From #occupy to revolution:
How could our world actually change?
What does a revolutionary road look like today?
- Jed Brandt, editor of the Occupied Wall Street Journal and founding participant of Kasama project
- Eric Ribellarsi, national organizer of the Kasama project, recently returned from deep investigations into the movement of the squares in Greece and the revolutionary movement in Nepal.
- Mike Ely, veteran revolutionary and editor of the Kasama discussion.
- Kazembe Balagun, outreach coordinator at the Brecht Forum serving as master of ceremonies
Sponsored by the Kasama Project and the Brecht Forum.
- What can we learn from other revolutionary forces around the world — from their successes, their frustrations, their innovations and their still-unsolved problems?
- How would we imagine a revolutionary change in the U.S. — how would it happen? Where would it lead? Who are the forces who might congeal to carry it through? How has revolution changed in a time of globalization and instant horizontal communication.
- What does Occupy Together mean for the chances of radical change in the U.S.?
- How do we create a new revolutionary movement that can creatively learn and understand this rapidly-changing world and actually empower oppressed people?

Hey, I’m comin’. That’s saying something since I am on the upper east side and the Brecht Forum is on the lower west side. Almost like going to Connecticut for me.
