Panel discussion | Opportunities and Obstacles: Class Strength in North America Today

Join us for a virtual panel discussion between Jay Youngdahl, Sam Gindin, and Adolf Reed Jr. on contemporary issues of class division and strength in North America.

The trio will discuss: where do divisions in the working class come from and who benefits from them? How can solidarity be built between workers across sectors today?

This panel activates Jay Youngdahl’s solo exhibition, I Don’t Want Your Millions (Billions), Mister, on at WAHC from February 13 – April 11, 2026.

Details subject to change. Zoom link coming soon.
