planning needs a philosophical and political reorientation from its traditional neoliberal pedagogy and toward a practice and theory of oppression, historical and dialectical materialism, abolition, decolonization, and degrowth.
planning at its core must be used to critically interrogate social, political, and economic history, and expose class, race, gender, sexuality, environmental, climate, and disability antagonisms against capital and the state to further revolutionary and systemic change.
planning should be the instrument through which full social, economic, political, and relational change, a change to how we live, and a change to how we view our relationship to land, property, and one another are realized to address our climate, democracy, wealth, resource, race, class, and gender inequities, and political-economic existential crises.
plan for liberation is a living digital library and framework for planners who are thinking beyond mainstream, state-based, capitalist, liberal, and settler colonial planning, and about revolutionary and communist planning as the way forward toward racial, environmental, social, and economic justice, and democracy.
