This discussion group is currently on pause while I finalize a couple projects. If you’d like to be on the email list for when it re-launches, drop me an email at Burnett.Lynn@Gmail.com , or join the project’s Patreon where you’ll receive the monthly newsletter which includes updates on all new resources and events.

Black Movement Thought is Cross Cultural Solidarity’s monthly discussion group. Each month we pair a text from Black movement history with a text from contemporary movement thinkers. For example: for our first sessions, we paired Stokely Carmichael’s thinking about the meaning and purpose of power with Alicia Garza’s, and W.E.B. Du Bois’ thinking about how racism harms democracy, the economy, and society’s institutions for everyone with Heather McGhee’s thinking on that subject.

This discussion group is an accessible way to be introduced to leading thinkers and activists today, while grounding yourself in the historical legacy. All texts will be short: essays and chapters, not books. All texts will be sent to participants, so there won’t be any need to purchase materials. The conversations will be facilitated, and will offer a simple way to plug into inspiration and community each month.
