Hi folks,

Today we’ll be discussing:

The Red Deal - The Red Nation - Discussion 3.

Today’s discussion is:

• 2/15 - The Red Deal - The Red Nation - Discussion 3, Part 3, “Heal our planet - reinvest in our common future”

There’s a copy available here: https://therednation.org/environmental-justice/ . Under “articles - the Red Deal”.

My physical copy finally came in, though!

Discussion Prompts

These are some ideas to address while considering this work. None of them are essential, and any of your own thoughts are very much welcome! I’ll be adding my own thoughts later today.

• What seems to be the main point of this work? What question is the author trying to answer?

• What have they missed? Are they wrong about anything?

• Did anything surprise you?

• Is this work applicable outside of the U$?

• Is this really a “nonessential” or would it be good for any communist to read it?

Next Discussion

The next discussion will be:

• 2/22 - The Red Deal - Red Nation - discussion 4 - Appendices and conclusion

Next Title

If you would like to suggest the next title please put in a separate comment with the words “submission suggestion”. I think the highest voted title should win.

Books should be:

• not suggested for beginners.
• not overly technical or philosophical (I’m just not smart enough to lead those discussions).
• relatively short (so as not to lose too much momentum).
• regionally or subject specific (like Che’s Guerilla Warfare is topically specific, or Decolonization is Not a Metaphor is regionally specific?).
• readily available.

Thanks for your time! :)
