DESCRIPTION:For July, 2022 we’re reading The Red Deal: Indigenous Action to Save Our 
 Earth,\nby The Red Nation, Amazon, Common Notions.\n\nAll are 
 welcome!\n\nWhen the Red Nation released their call for a Red Deal, it 
 generated coverage in places from Teen Vogue to Jacobin to the New 
 Republic, was endorsed by the DSA, and has galvanized organizing and 
 action. Now, in response to popular demand, the Red Nation expands their 
 original statement filling in the histories and ideas that formed it and 
 forwarding an even more powerful case for the actions it 
 demands. \nOne-part visionary platform, one-part practical toolkit, the 
 Red Deal is a platform that encompasses everyone, including non-Indigenous 
 comrades and relatives who live on Indigenous land. We—Indigenous, Black 
 and people of color, women and trans folks, migrants, and working 
 people—did not create this disaster, but we have inherited it. We have 
 barely a decade to turn back the tide of climate disaster. It is time to 
 reclaim the life and destiny that has been stolen from us and rise up 
 together to confront this challenge and build a world where all life can 
 thrive. Only mass movements can do what the moment demands. Politicians may 
 or may not follow--it is up to them--but we will design, build, and lead 
 this movement with or without them.\nThe Red Deal is a call for action 
 beyond the scope of the US colonial state. It’s a program for Indigenous 
 liberation, life, and land—an affirmation that colonialism and capitalism 
 must be overturned for this planet to be habitable for human and 
 other-than-human relatives to live dignified lives. The Red Deal is not a 
 response to the Green New Deal, or a “bargain” with the elite and 
 powerful. It’s a deal with the humble people of the earth; a pact that we 
 shall strive for peace and justice and a declaration that movements for 
 justice must come from below and to the left. \nStrike Debt Bay Area hosts 
 this non-technical book group discussion monthly on new and radical 
 economic thinking. Previous readings have included Doughnut 
 Economics, Limits, Banking on the People, Capital and Its 
 Discontents, How to Be an Anti-Capitalist in the 21st Century, The 
 Deficit Myth,  Revenge Capitalism, the Edge of Chaos blog symposium 
 , Re-enchanting the World: Feminism and the Politics of the Commons, The 
 Optimist’s Telescope, Mission Economy: A Moonshot Guide to Changing 
 Capitalism, Exploring Degrowth, The Origin of Wealth, Mine!, The Dawn of 
 Everything and A History of the World in Seven Cheap Things.\n
