420 Hamilton Hall
CSER presents our third speaker of the Spring 2024 seminar series, Dr. Dylan Rodríguez of the University of California, Riverside as he presents his talk, Counterinsurgency Machine: Reframing the U.S. “Social Justice (etc.)” Ensemble on April 4, 2024.
He is a professor in the Department of Media and Cultural Studies. In his talk, he will discuss how, “as the smoke and dust settle from multi-scaled mobilizations and autonomous radical actions in places from Minneapolis and Mauna Kea to Standing Rock and Stop Cop City, an ensemble of “social justice” initiatives emerges to enlist and empower ostensible abolitionists, decolonizers, and revolutionaries (insurgents), redirecting their labor and political energy to activities that restore the functionality, if not the legitimacy, of state power and the extended apparatuses of global capital.”
Location: 420 Hamilton Hall, CSER Seminar Room
