The Evening of David Whyte

"How can a system emerge that ends capitalism? If so, what would it take, and what might it look like?" Jason W. Moore, David Whyte, Sandro Mezzadra & Brett Neilson provide the answer in three essays that provide a definitive, detailed analysis of capitalism and pave the way for what we must do next.

Capitalism has been remarkably successful in dominating everything we do and spreading it to every corner of the world. But this all-encompassing success is our undoing. Capitalism is the system that is driving us, and countless other species, to the brink of extinction. This should be cause for despair. Yet we have created this monster. And that means we can kill it. This evening explores the depths of the problem we face, and more importantly, how we fight back as activists, artists and writers. From Western Europe to West Papua, we discuss how people are fighting and winning against capitalism’s most ferocious monster, the for-profit corporation.
