A MOMENT ON THE CLOCK OF THE WORLD is an invitation to consider how
we make the world, together. It collects the voices of people who
respond to this invitation with their living lives and prolific
work: artists, social justice practitioners, cultural critics and
public intellectuals - Cornel West, Taylor Mac, Alisa Solomon,
Robin D.G. Kelley and Laura Flanders among them - whose own
inquiries intersected with that of the award-winning Foundry
Theatre across its 25-year history. Notions of collaboration, art,
community, space, prefigurative politics, metrics, and Time animate
a conversation about the ways that artists and social justice
workers build a more equitable world, and the historic challenges
of their doing so together. A MOMENT ON THE CLOCK OF THE WORLD
follows The Foundry's long-standing tradition for creating
provocative relationships between form and content. Its layout
divides each page into two discrete horizontal sections; the top
two-thirds contain each contributor's chapter, while the bottom of
the pages throughout the book hold a history of The Foundry's
inquiry by the company's founder. There is no prescribed way to
read this book. Rather, it is designed to invite the reader to
discover and gather shared themes and ideas in any number of ways.
The title of the book recalls renowned social activist and
philosopher Grace Lee Boggs's legendary - and for some, incendiary
- call for a new kind of activism: "Now is the time on the clock of
the world to grow our souls." This book gathers together hard-won
insights of its "moment." It's a moment on the continuum of ever in
the (r)evolutionary human project of making the world.
