$15-general public; $8-low income patrons/seniors;$5-students with valid IDProject 2050 searches for the true meaning of “revolution”, examining how it gets used, where it comes from, and where the youth of today want to take it. What happens when the word “revolution” gets pimped in everything from music videos to banking ads? What’s the difference between revolution, resistance, uprising and independence? How can we reconcile the dual revolutionary credos of “by any means necessary” and nonviolent civil disobedience? What did Che Guevara mean when he said, “Every true revolutionary is driven by love”? Project 2050 investigates global justice movements, through history and today, asking “what kind of love are we talking about?” and “what kind of revolution do we want?” Join the youth of Project 2050 as they discover, revise, remix and evolve REVOLUTION for a new generation!
