Have you ever felt angry, stressed, sad, or overwhelmed after a debate with a comrade? Have you ever felt that criticism has been weaponized against you? Has lack of timely criticism harmed your work, or set up problems for later on? What is the right way for socialists to disagree with each other and improve each other's work? Learn through discussing Vicki Legion's excellent book Constructive Criticism. Written in the 1970s when Legion was a member of a socialist collective in Saint Louis, Constructive Criticism draws on lessons from movements in Africa and China to help socialist organizers disagree in a productive fashion, instead of an unproductive one which creates headaches. Come discuss it and learn how to criticize (and self-criticize!) and build a better organization through principled struggle! July 17th, 6PM. Virtual.
