G20 Teach-In UJ Centre for Social

Can the G20 be reformed, or should it breakup?

The case against  imperial + subimperial partnerships

In the person at the University of Johannesburg Soweto Campus, join a two-day tech-in covering G20 “solidarity, equality, sustainability’ politics, hosted by Trevor Ngwane, Patric Bond and the Centre for Social Change – or join us online as we broadcast live: https://us02web.zoomus/j/8473624863

The UJ Centre Social offers critiques of G20 imperial + subimperial partnership, for amplifying – not solving – the world’s problems.

These politocs pit the Trumps regime (the “G1”, boycotting SA) against other Western “G6” ruling classes in alliance with the Brazil-Russia-India-china-South Africa BRICS bloc…against everyone else and our planetary ecosystems.

The hosting of the Johannesburg G20Leaders summit at the Nasrec conference site-near Diepkloof, Soweto – on November 22-23, offers a chance on the prior weekend to learn from activists of South Africa, G20 members state and the world’s economics periphery.

The tech-in helps question whether the ‘unipolar’ post-WWII institutions and capitalist markets are really being challenged by the new ‘multipolar’ BRICS actors – or whether instead, G20 merely co-opts both South African elites and their ‘S20’ civil society allies.

Topics include poverty and inequality: financial stability and fairness; ecocide; geopolitical frictions, e.g. genocide in Palestine, food sovereignty; and social + class struggles for justice.

A ‘Break the g20’ tech-in will be at UJs Soweto Campus (2km West of Hano-Baragranath Hospital)
Also join us on November 20-22 at Constitutional Hills We the 99% Festival.
