SURVIVING THE FUTURE: Abolitionist Queer Strategies is a collection that explores contemporary radical thinking about everything from Stonewall to the anti-Black, classist violence "essential workers" faced during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. In an experimental session with S. Ireti, Bry Reed - one of the collection's editors - will support attendees in using the strategies detailed in the text to understand Baltimore's past, present, and future. Come ready to think, talk, and strategize for our collective abolitionist future.
