   * Rosa Luxemburgs warned that modernity will either progress to socialism or collapse into barbarism, is often repeated today. But what happens when elements of the struggle for socialism are reappropriated for Fascism.  In “the Destruction of Reason”, Lukacs discusses how many of the insights of Marxism, denatured of their revolutionary commitment become weapons for reaction. In the face of the deligitimisation of reason and a romantic return to mysticism and belief, he affirms a critical commitment to reason.    * Rosa Luxemburgs warned that modernity will either progress to socialism or collapse into barbarism, is often repeated today.

   * - hooks is known as a poet, but some of her most important work is in rethinking education for a rapidly changing world, where social conventions are being radically disrupted.  Over her long academic career, hooks developed a practice she called “engaged pedagogy” which allows students to help each other meaningfully integrate critiques of class, race and sexuality into their studies.   * - hooks is known as a poet, but some of her most important work is in rethinking education for a rapidly changing world, where social conventions are being radically disrupted.  Over her long academic career, hooks developed a practice she called “engaged pedagogy” which allows students to help each other meaningfully integrate critiques of class, race and sexuality into their studies.

   * - Journalist and activist,  Jones argued that the emancipation of Black women required attending to how they were synergistically “triply oppressed”, economically, racially and sexually, so that any emancipatory struggle  could not be directed only to one facet but must simultaneously attend to all three oppressions and their interplay to succeed. This became one of the foundational theories which became known as intersectionality.    * - Journalist and activist,  Jones argued that the emancipation of Black women required attending to how they were synergistically “triply oppressed”, economically, racially and sexually, so that any emancipatory struggle  could not be directed only to one facet but must simultaneously attend to all three oppressions and their interplay to succeed.

   * Wynter radically rethinks humanism, decrying what she calls bourgeois mono-humanism and decolonizing it with Fanon to produce a dynamic humanism re-enchanted with its own always renegotiated contingency.  Deeply concerned with technological and scientific advance, Wynter confronts the specialising and standardizing tendency of homo oeconomicus with the story-telling and meaning-making homo narrans.   * Wynter radically rethinks humanism, decrying what she calls bourgeois mono-humanism and decolonizing it with Fanon to produce a dynamic humanism re-enchanted with its own always renegotiated contingency.  Deeply concerned with technological and scientific advance, Wynter confronts the specialising and standardizing tendency of homo oeconomicus with the story-telling and meaning-making homo narrans.
