“The Ground on Which Marx Stood when Turning to Reality and Practice”: Andrew Kliman will lead the discussion on Raya Dunayevskaya’s unique and challenging view that Marx began to develop his Marxism before he was a Marxist, when he was working out the dialectic of the transformation of reality. This was the ground on which he stood when he later turned to the real world and to practice.

To attend, send MHI a request to attend by Oct. 1; state briefly why you’re interested in MHI and your location.

“Raya Dunayevskaya: Biography of an Idea”

MHI is happy to distribute this documentary film by Alex Fletcher. It explores many major concepts of the philosopher, activist, and feminist Raya Dunayevskaya, who developed Marxist-Humanism over much of the last century, up until her death in 1987. The 79-minute film contains rare video clips of her speeches and offers glimpses of material in her archives, as well as featuring interviews of 3 MHI members who belonged to Dunayevskaya’s organization during her lifetime.

Film now available here. Review and trailer here.
