Study Group: In Defense of Looting

What’s the difference between looting and plundering? Why does the media often fixate on the actions of individuals and overlook the violence carried out by the state? We’ll discuss these questions and more at our next study group meeting Sunday, January 4 from 5-7pm on Zoom! We’re continuing our deep dive into criminalization with chapters 3-5 of Vicky Osterweil’s provocative book on American history, In Defense of Looting.

The text is available for free online and available through several local library systems, or available for purchase in hard copy or e-reader formats. As always, all are welcome to join us no matter how much or how little of the reading you’re able to do!
