Imagine All the People: Socio-Eco-Technical Imaginaries & Utopian Movements- Hybrid event

Mother Foucault's Bookshop 715 SE Grand Ave, Portland

What does it mean to imagine the future when technology inspires as much fear as hope? In this thought-provoking talk, Dr. Alexander Reid Ross explores how digital systems, social movements, and environmental pressure shape the stories we tell about what comes next—and who gets left out. Join us for a conversation that challenges easy optimism and asks harder questions about the futures we’re building.
