    Cuando invitamos a Benjamin Arditi a publicar en este número de Heterotopías nos propuso la interesante posibilidad de compartir este relevante diálogo con Nelly Richard que acababan de entretejer bajo formato mestizo, entre la conversación y la entrevista. Reponemos aquí, in extenso1, este encuentro entre dos intelectuales críticos, anclado en el conocimiento mutuo de sus respectivas producciones, escrituras, posicionamientos; también de sus modulaciones diferenciales y zonas de tensión respecto de los actuales escenarios sociopolíticos y los campos de experiencias situados. Juntxs analizan, entre otros focos nodales, la categoría de “populismo”, los actuales fenómenos anti/desdemocratizadores de derechas, los feminismos - transversalidad de clases o no-, las izquierdas, las limitaciones y las aperturas por venir.When we invited Benjamin Arditi to publish in this issue of Heterotopías, he proposed the interesting opportunity to share this relevant dialogue with Nelly Richard, which they had just woven together in a hybrid format, a cross between a conversation and an interview. Here, we reenact, in extensum, this encounter between two critical intellectuals, anchored in a mutual understanding of their respective productions, writings, and positions; as well as in their differential modulations and zones of tension with respect to current sociopolitical scenarios and situated fields of experience. Together, they analyze, among other key areas, the category of "populism," current anti-/de-democratizing right-wing phenomena, feminisms (class transversality or not), the left, limitations, and future openings

    No full text
    Letter from J.E. Painter to (presumably) Benjamin Lundy, answering a request for information about the history and operations of the Underground Railroad. Letter includes details of a story of an ex-slave transported on the Underground Railroad through Ohio and stories of the plight of other fugitive slaves crossing the Ohio River.

His "Genius of Universal Emancipation" was first published in 1821 from his home in Mt. Pleasant, Ohio, and enjoyed a wide circulation across the antebellum United States. In the 1820s, the young William Lloyd Garrison came to work for The Genius. Benjamin Lundy traveled widely seeking subscriptions to The Genius, giving talks about the anti-slavery movement, and observing and documenting the conditions of enslaved people across the Americas. He was also involved in the establishment of freed slave colonies in Mexico
