Organized By: International Youth and Students for Social Equality

Join the International Youth and Students for Social Equality (IYSSE) as we participate in an international online May Day rally!

What: Gathering hosted by the IYSSE to listen and contribute remarks to an online May Day rally organized by the International Committee of the Fourth International (ICFI) and the World Socialist Web Site
When: May 5 at 5pm
Where: Shapiro Undergraduate Library, Room 2124

May 5, 2018 marks the 200th anniversary of the birth of Karl Marx, the greatest philosopher of modern history and the founder of scientific socialism. Marx's call: “Workers of the world unite!” resonates today amid an eruption of the class struggle on every continent. In the first four months of 2018, tens of millions of people have participated in the largest demonstrations and strikes in decades.

The capitalist system, based on the exploitation of the working class, is wracked by crisis.

All over the world, the ruling elites seek to protect their wealth and save this bankrupt system by resorting to war and repression. The governments and corporations are censoring the Internet out of fear that this revolutionary source for information and communication can link workers across the world in a common struggle against inequality, dictatorship and war.

The International Committee of the Fourth International (ICFI) and the World Socialist Web Site are commemorating Marx's birthday alongside May Day, the international day of working class solidarity, with an international online rally with participants from dozens of countries worldwide. Speakers will include leaders of the Fourth International from around the world.

Location: Shapiro Library
Organized By: University Library

This informal workshop, related to the talk It’s All Relational: Indigenous Video Game as Storytelling Praxis. takes up ideas and (re)newed approaches within some Indigenous and decolonial projects: VR, comic books, video games, machine a and more. We’ll share ideas, approaches, sources, and workshop some ways to make your storytelling praxis happen! Come with ideas, questions, outlines for stories you need to tell, want to share, or don’t quite know what to do with. Play has been included intentionally to combat burn out from community-building, activism, and pursuing graduate degrees. Play is a powerful counter to this that can (re)code how we relate to others - human and nonhuman - and ourselves.

The workshop will be led by Michelle Lee Brown, who studies Indigenous political praxis and futures through Indigenous designers’ video games, graphic novels, and machinima in the Department of Political Science at the University of Hawai'i - Mānoa. She has published peer-reviewed work on the Never Alone video game, a methods chapter on Indigenous political theory approaches to video game research, and “Liminal” – a comic in the forthcoming Relational Constellation collection from MSU Press and Native Realities Press. She is currently working on a VR project on water and relationality, and a comic based on multiple levels of impostor syndrome.

Join us to hear from David Bleznak, CEO of Totle, a fast-growing crypto trading company, as he shares his founders' story of launching an emerging technology venture. David will talk about the ups and downs in the early stages of building Totle, and deliver key insights about what can sink or catapult your company in the first six months of its existence. There will be a keynote, Q&A session, and opportunities for 1-on-1 conversation toward the end of the event!
