How do the current crises of democracy, the economy and the environment intersect? Nancy Fraser’s Cannibal Capitalism: How Our System is Devouring Democracy, Care and the Planet - and What Can We Do About It? is without doubt one of the boldest attempts to answer this question. Working from a Marxist Feminist perspective, Fraser provides an analytical framework to understand the multidimensional crises of capitalism in a nuanced yet highly accessible and enjoyable prose. For three weeks, we will dive into Fraser’s argument reflecting on how this helps us make sense of the dystopian present. Some of the book’s themes that we will discuss include the definition of capitalism, care and social reproduction, colonialism and racialized violence, dispossession and the question of ecopolitics. In addition to discussing these topics and their interconnections, we will ask how Fraser’s systemic analysis helps us image anti-capitalist politics and alternative futures.

SLIDING SCALE TUITION
Full tuition is the cost per-student of running the class. If you choose a tier below full tuition, you are receiving a discount. If you choose to make a donation in addition to full tuition, you are helping to cover the cost for students who are not able to pay the full amount.
The mid-level tier is a discounted rate for people whose household income is at or above living wage but who have limited discretionary income.
The low-level tier and the full-scholarship tier are for people whose household income is below living wage or who need extra assistance to meet their needs.
SCHOLARSHIPS
Through our fundraising efforts, we are able to offer three full scholarships per class. The full-scholarship tier is a nonrefundable offering. Each student may only take one full-scholarship class at a time. Because our scholarship funding is limited, if a student selects multiple overlapping classes at the full-scholarship level, they will be disenrolled from all classes.
All sliding-scale and scholarship needs are self-assessed, and we will never request or require proof of need.
Please see our FAQ for more information, including installment plans, refund policy, and sick and inclement weather policy.
