The first iteration of the Study and Struggle program ran from September to December 2020. Our Critical Conversations series, hosted by Haymarket Books in the first week of each month, covered the themes for the upcoming month. Smaller study groups met biweekly on the second and fourth weeks of the month.

All of this material is still available to study! Each session includes: required readings, supplementary materials, recommended materials, discussion questions, an exercise related to each session’s topic, and a reading guide. We recommend that everyone read the required readings and that each person in the group select at least one of the supplementary materials to read, watch, or listen to. If you want to learn more, check out the recommended materials, too! The reading guide will help explain some of the main ideas. The discussion questions and exercises can help structure each reading group meeting, but each group should feel free to structure their time however they see fit.
