Support Maya Gonzalez and Her Work

Maya Gonzalez is a communist researcher and writer. Her work has had a profound impact on the way Marx is read in the present, transforming the way we understand key concepts like value form and social reproduction.

In fact, Maya’s mode of inquiry has developed into a school of thought and inspired countless people to elaborate their own thoughts within the framework she constructed. Her words, her dedication, and her camaraderie have been a driving force behind countless ventures in collective reading, writing, and thinking. If you are reading this, then you surely already know all of this about Maya, and thus you are, in some way or another, part of her school, part of the lifelong experiment of building and understanding communism with her.

To be in the presence of Maya Gonzalez is to be in awe. She poses questions. She recommends films, music, and literature, offering her original and incisive analysis. She is also a great listener and interlocutor. Ask her something and you will be sure to get an answer. Then a follow up answer. Then, a few weeks later, she will come back to your question, prepared to answer once again, having read several books on the topic.

In 2023 Maya took an academic post. It’s likely she will not be able to return. She is unemployed, the first of many obstacles. Your contribution to this fund will support Maya for a year and chip away at out-of-pocket health care bills, as she continues her research and writing while tackling the ever-competitive job market. She has not had, but absolutely deserves, the stability needed to do this work.
