Date: 2024-04-06

Drawing from contemporary front line struggles against colonialism and ecocide, author Xander Dunlap discusses the failures of mainstream debate around climate change, from eco-modernism to eco-Leninism. In conversation with researcher Carlos Tornel, this event explores the fossil fuels behind low-carbon infrastructure, social war theory, and the role of the academy.

ABOUT THE BOOK
-----
New from Pluto Press, Xander's "This System is Killing Us" is an insider look at the catastrophic effects of energy infrastructure and mining on communities, their land, and our planet. Xander spent almost a decade living and working with indigenous activists worldwide to uncover evidence of repression and activism of people and their environment in the wake of untamed capitalist growth. From Zapotec and Ikoot people struggling against wind energy projects in Oaxaca, Mexico, to the violence of the Hambach mine in the German Rhineland, Xander presents the truth that lies behind the green re-branding of capitalism that social movements in the Global North have been slow to challenge.
