DESCRIPTION:Join Jean Pfaelzer for the reading and discussion of her book 
 "California\, A Slave State" with Damian Pargas (Professor of the History 
 and Culture of North America)\, moderated by Luvena Kopp (BCDSS).\n"Califo
 rnia\, A Slave State" breaks with the common perception of California as a
  place of endless sunshine\, long coastlines\, and rich harvests. It does 
 so by exposing the multifold ways in which different forms of slavery and 
 dependency were – and continue to be – constitutive of a state that is
  one of the largest economies in the world. In an accessible and poetic la
 nguage that neither simplifies nor euphemizes this history and its brutali
 ty\, Pfaelzer uncovers the co-existence of traditional and new systems of 
 bondage in a land shaped by the genocide\, indenture\, and rape of Native 
 Americans\, the coerced labor of captive Alaska Natives\, African American
  enslaved labor\, the prostitution of Chinese girls\, the unpaid labor of 
 convicts\, and ecological exploitation.
