Build as We Fight: The Revolutionary Legacy of James and Grace Lee Boggs

This panel addresses this theme of the 2019 annual meeting, “Build as We Fight,” which is inspired by the lessons James and Grace Lee Boggs drew from Amilcar Cabral and the liberation of Guiné in Revolution and Evolution in the Twentieth Century. In this moment of ecological crisis, global economic crisis, and domestic Constitutional crisis, resistance is an imperative for survival. Yet, as the Boggses argued, revolutions are made on “projections” rather than merely “rejections,” as they embody the peoples’ capacity for self-determination and self-governance.
