A event held at PRSC on Saturday 3rd April. The event starts at 14:00.
Angry Workers, a small political collective from London join us to talk about finding new ways of building class power in tough times. What next for working class politics and revolutionary strategy?
"We will talk about the large logistical and industrial backyard of the metropolis. About the reasons we moved there to get rooted. We will talk about slow-downs and overtime strikes in warehouses and frustrations at factory gates at five in the morning. About our workmates from Katowice and Jalandhar. About the impact of Brexit and zero-hour contracts. We will share our experiences with our solidarity network, an IWW organising drive and campaigns to stop local libraries from closing. We will talk about being union reps in two big unions and the limits we found. We will make proposals about working class strategy and revolution."
"We will also discuss our organising experiences in relation to the current attacks: the increase in legal repression (‘Kill the Bill’, police repression in Italy and Greece) and the widespread ‘fire and rehire’ tactics to cut jobs and wages. These are two aspects of the same attack."
Angry Workers of the World: for working class inquiry. https://www.angryworkers.org/
The IWW is a revolutionary global union, fighting for better conditions today and economic democracy tomorrow. https://iww.org.uk/about/
TICKETS: The suggested donation of £4 will help us keep the School of Activism as accessible & low-cost as possible, £8 will subsidise a ticket for someone else - but no-one turned away through lack of funds!

The School of Activism 2.0 is a two week programme of workshops, talks and activities brought to you by Peoples Republic of Stokes Croft over the Easter holidays. The workshops are intended to be empowering experiences equipping people with the tools to challenge the status quo, contest power structures and ultimately to change the world.
We learn by doing. We make our own future.
