Why aren\u2019t we holding emergency meetings in every city, town and village every week?\n\nWhat is to be done to create a planet where a communist horizon offers a new dawn to replace our planetary twilight? What does it mean to be a communist after we have hit a climate tipping point?\n\nAnnie Olaloku-Teriba and Barnaby Raine will be joined by Richard Seymour and Rosie Warren, two members of the Salvage Collective, for a discussion of capitalism\u2019s death drive, the left\u2019s complicated entanglements with fossil fuels, the rising tide of fascism, and other themes related to the newly published Tragedy of the Worker.\n\nAmidst the ruins and future wreckage of climate catastrophe they argue that Salvage Communism is our only path toward a liberated future on a habitable planet.\n\nThis discussion will be part of the ongoing Salvage Live events series, hosted by Haymarket Books. \n---------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nThe Tragedy of the Worker is available from Verso Books.
