Book Description
In today's interconnected world, most people have acquired knowledge of producing the best result but are still stuck in the how do I start phase. You don't want your big dreams, if you have one, and plans fade away like it never existed just because you don't have the resources. This book will do justice to that in a very simplified way such that by the time you are reading the last chapter, you have already started. The subtitle of this book is "Start Now". That's because I believe that achieving any height of success or milestone can only be possible if, against all odds, you started. You will remember back in school when our instructors ask us questions and we are supposed to answer, maybe after someone has answered it, but we are like, "that is what I wanted to say". Funny memory, right? The truth is, the world will recognize who does it first, not who has it in mind first.

Today's Struggles, Tomorrow's Revolutions
Author: Drucilla Cornell
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1538168502
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 155
Book Description
The black insurgence movement and experiments in Caribbean socialism, following the work of the committed revolutionary CLR James, have resounding significance for the political struggles of today. This book addresses class struggle and the battle against racialized capitalism, which in turn makes us reconceptualize the idea of revolution, liberation and rebellion by focusing on this great revolutionary theorist. Renowned political theorist Drucilla Cornell argues that the universal heartbeat of the struggle for socialism is a new praxis of being human together beyond the exploitation of colonial-racial capitalism. On this basis, this book’s intervention emphasizes the continuous history of revolution, rather than understanding revolutions as “events” that either succeed or fail. In today’s moment, with the simultaneity of the collapse of the post-Cold War neoliberal order and climate change, the struggle over what it means to be human on the planet has taken on a new urgency. Cornell argues that the greatest vectors of this revolutionary struggle for a new humanity are Black, decolonial, and queer movements, as they show us ways of being beyond the reign of white economic man. Placing the insights of these struggles in conversation with “traditional” Marxist thought, this book speaks to the pragmatic questions of insurrection, insurgency, rebellion, and revolution in a way that speaks to the politics of our time.
