- **Event Description**: A look to our past and envisioned futures reveals the prevailing strength of creativity and rebellion across time.About this EventRebecca Solnit and Saul Williams, moderated by Christie George (illustrator Morgan Sörne joining for signing)The FreightIn the midst of white nationalism, global capitalism, and authoritarian regimes that drive individualism and isolation, a look to our past and envisioned futures reveals the prevailing strength of creativity and rebellion across time. By surveying a world that has changed dramatically since 1960 in her book The Beginning Comes After the End: Notes on a World of Change, historian and activist Rebecca Solnit unveils the sheer breadth and scale of social, political, scientific, and cultural changes that have shaped a more interconnected, relational world which embraces antiracism, feminism, a more expansive understanding of gender, environmental thinking, scientific breakthroughs, and Indigenous and non-Western ideas. Because transformation is obscured within a longer arc of history, its scale is seldom recognized, but change is inevitable, brought about by dismantling an old civilization and building a new one, whose newness is often the return of the old ways and wisdoms. Poet, performer, and director Saul Williams charts his own creative visions for change in Martyr Loser King, his graphic novel about a global cyberattack rebellion in a small East African country where the Black population and the land are exploited for the mining of the precious ore coltan. Simultaneously a cautionary tale and hopeful vision for the future, this cyberpunk fable raises incisive questions about capitalism, colonialism, and the future of technology. Illustrator Morgan Sörne will join for book signing after this headliner conversation, moderated by Christie George, featuring the creative minds who are mapping and shaping the trajectory of our futures despite the forces seeking to turn back the clock on history.Introductory live music performance by Bushwick Book Club Oakland
