The time has come to reimagine higher education.
Grace brings a {r}evolutionary vision for #WomensHistoryMonth. We need to care for each other and the Earth!
The James and Grace Lee Boggs School is HIRING visionary educators and staff. Please go directly to their announcement for more information. facebook.com/photo?fbid=916…
In today's NYT, sociologist Eric Klinenberg writes on how the pandemic accentuated an underlying sense of neoliberal precarity & institutional failure that is only getting worse. As Grace told us, “The time has come for us to reimagine everything." nytimes.com/2024/01/31/opi…
Wishing the happiest of birthdays to Angela Y. Davis, whom Grace had the pleasure of engaging in a historic conversation at UC Berkeley in 2012! pbs.org/video/pov-amer…
Taking Dr. King seriously requires a radical change or paradigm shift in our approach to organizing and to citizenship, which is the practice of politics. #MLKDay2024
The #January6th insurrection symbolizes the growing counterrevolution that Grace warned us about
Happy 123rd Birthday to CLR James, whose insights remain essential to building the revolution! "Working with CLR James during the years he spent in the United States was more exciting intellectually than anything I had known." —Grace Lee Boggs
“Grace Lee Boggs (b. 1915) learned early in life that if she wanted justice, she’d have to fight for it.” The Atlantic’s year-end tribute from 2015: theatlantic.com/entertainment/…
WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU! Please see the new website of the James and Grace Lee Boggs Foundation at boggsfoundation.org to join our network of organizers, educators, artists & diverse people of conscience who are inspired by Jimmy & Grace to shake the world with a new dream!
“A scholar and activist who deeply understood what it meant to practice and fight for intersectionality.” The Next American Revolution: Sustainable Activism for the Twenty-First Century, written by Grace Lee Boggs with Scott Kurashige, is one of the great reads @RWJF curated…
Grace always drew a contrast between the consumerism of Black Friday and the heritage of Native Americans.
Remember to say Grace before your meal! Peace and love to all for the holidays from the James and Grace Lee Boggs Foundation.
Inspired by Amilcar Cabral, Jimmy & Grace Lee Boggs taught us to build the revolution as we fight the oppressors. Watch Angela Davis, adrienne maree brown & a panel speak to the ongoing importance of these lessons from this day in 2019. youtube.com/watch?v=qsi614…
Just as Grace would demand a #CeaseFire, we know @RashidaTlaib believes in human rights & dignity for all. That’s why she joined the Boggs Foundation during the pandemic to #StopAsianHate & promote cross-racial solidarity. Source: youtube.com/live/pu_N1hfn0…

My dad Stanley Aronowitz died on Mon at age 88. He was an unstoppable, brilliant, resilient, hilarious guy with an endless capacity to learn and listen. Here’s more about his legacy from the NYT nytimes.com/2021/08/21/us/…
The SNCC Legacy Project offers its condolences and love to Janet Moses, and his children Maisha, Omo, Taba, and Malika Moses at the passing of Bob Moses who was husband, father and an emotional center for the family.
If you know me, you know that a lot of my work has been informed by the legacies of James and @GraceLeeBoggs. Please join me in the effort to turn their home into a museum. It's a great way to promote Black-Asian solidarity and radical movement building. givebutter.com/BoggsHouse/oiy…
