Be the first to review

As a living history of urban activism, the Museum of Reclaimed Urban Space (MoRUS) chronicles the East Village community’s history of grassroots action. It celebrates the local activists who transformed abandoned spaces and vacant lots into vibrant community spaces and gardens. Many of these innovative, sustainable concepts and designs have since spread out to the rest of the city and beyond.

The mission of MoRUS is to preserve the history of grassroots activism and promote environmentally-sound, community-based urban ecologies. MoRUS pursues three main goals:

– archive and document the history of activism in the Lower East Side, East Village and Alphabet City

– educate visitors with exhibitions and guided tours of the neighborhood

– empower individuals to partake in the process for sustainable change with workshops and events

A Radical Podcast EP 7: Class Struggle - A Radical Podcast

In this episode of A Radical Podcast, titled "Class Struggle," we delve deep into the historical and theoretical aspects of class struggle and its profound influence on our societies. From the Conflict of the Orders in the Roman Republic to the Seattle General Strike, we examine the pervasive nature of class struggle and its role in sparking revolutionary changes. We also discuss the ongoing resistance at the Maxmur camp, highlighting the current struggles for autonomy and self-determination. Rounding off the episode, we spotlight the Soundz of the South, a political arts collective using music as a tool for resistance and explore the history of the Toyi-toyi protest dance. Tune in for a thought-provoking journey through radical history and culture. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aradicalguide/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aradicalguide/support
