About the Author
Kali Akuno is a cofounder and codirector of Cooperation Jackson. He
was the director of special projects and external funding in the mayoral
administration of the late Chokwe Lumumba of Jackson, MS. His focus in
this role was supporting cooperative development, the introduction of
eco-friendly and carbon reduction methods of operation, and the
promotion of human rights and international relations for the city.
Akuno has also served as the codirector of the U.S. Human Rights
Network, and the executive director of the Peoples' Hurricane Relief
Fund (PHRF) based in New Orleans, after Hurricane Katrina. He was a
cofounder of the School of Social Justice and Community Development
(SSJCD), a public school serving the academic needs of low-income
African American and Latino communities in Oakland. Kali currently
splits his time between Jackson, MS and Marshfield, VT.
Richard D. Wolff is professor of economics emeritus, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, and a visiting professor at the New School University in New York. Wolff's recent work has concentrated on analyzing the causes and alternative solutions to the global economic crisis. His groundbreaking book Democracy at Work: A Cure for Capitalism inspired the creation of Democracy at Work, a nonprofit organization dedicated to showing how and why to make democratic workplaces real. Wolff is also the author of Occupy the Economy: Challenging Capitalism and Capitalism Hits the Fan: The Global Economic Meltdown and What to Do about It. He hosts the weekly hour-long radio program "Economic Update," which is syndicated on public radio stations nationwide, and he writes regularly for The Guardian and Truthout.org.
<br /><br />Matt Meyer is a noted educator, author, and organizer currently serving as Secretary General of the International Peace Research Association. As former national co-chair of the Fellowship of Reconciliation and former chair of the War Resisters League, he is second only to A.J. Muste--dean of the US peace movement--being elected to the top position of both historic organizations. Based in New York City, Meyer has led seminars, courses, trainings, and conferences in over sixty countries throughout five continents, focusing on themes including the strategies and tactics of revolutionary nonviolence; political imprisonment; decolonization and the cases of Puerto Rico, Palestine, West Papua, Western Sahara, and Ambazonia; and the connections between militarism, white supremacy, patriarchy and imperialism. Meyer is Senior Research Scholar at the University of Massachusetts/Amherst Resistance Studies Initiative, noted by South African Nobel Peace Laureate Archbishop Desmond Tutu (in the foreword to his book with Bill Sutherland, Guns and Gandhi in Africa), as having begun to develop a language which looks at the roots of our humanness.
