Since 2000, the editorial collective has been hosting dialogs and framing dialogical relationships which embed the protocols of exchange in liberatory practice. Words find action in dialog. Dialog finds meaning in action.
Many events listed below involve other collectives and participants in addition to the Journal. But as Critical Discourse is central to our practice, we feel it important to include some of these projects on the website.

to look into how, and to better facilitate the popular education occuring within the
occupations.

The University of California had become an open site for conflict around neo-liberalism. Members of the Journal Editorial Collective (past and present) and our wider community have been involved in the struggle on campus. After proposing a class at the LA Public Schoo l around the strikes while concurrently dialoging with independent scholar Brian Holmes, the Journal colaborated in organizing a week of dialogs and and actions throughout California. These events were in relationship to the crisis, neoliberalism and ongoing privatization.
There were several events that editorial collective members did not organize at all. We directly co-organzied with a broader collective the umbrella organization and the 2 day conference built off of Brian Holmes/16 Beaver's Continental Drift. Our drift was entitled:Control Society/Metamorphosis.
Ongoing project continues at Occupy Everything.org
