What's On Today

Events on Wednesday 22nd July

“Ninety years on, the Spanish Civil War remains both a warning and an inspiration. It warns of the danger posed by fascism and reaction, but it also demonstrates the courage, creativity and determination of working people fighting for a better society. For socialists today, Spain continues to raise a vital question: how can we build the broadest resistance to the far right while maintaining an independent political programme rooted in democracy, equality and working-class power? The sacrifices of those who fought in Spain ensure that this question remains as relevant now as it was in 1936.”

“dreamcastmoe’s beats are a mirror to his life lived and experienced there. “I would not be where I am today if I weren’t from DC,” he says. “You can hear DC in the way that I talk. Certain runs in my voice are rooted to the soul of DC because I listen to a lot of Donny Hathaway and Marvin Gaye. I would say DC has a role in my approach to my music and sets the tone. I’m one of those people that could work with anyone. I always try to bring the best out of people. That’s just how I grew up. I grew up in a smorgasbord of a city where one block could be hood shit and the next block could be the White House. You have to know how to move accordingly through all those spaces.””

“**H.P. Lovecraft** was born in Providence, Rhode Island, in 1890. He was self-educated and lived in his birthplace all his life, working as a freelance writer, journalist, and ghostwriter. His best work - including some sixty or so short stories - was published from 1923 onwards in the pulp magazine *Weird Tales*. He died in 1937, in poverty and virtually unknown; today he is recognised as one of the great masters of supernatural fiction, the dark father of modern horror with a unique, singular vision. His personal reputation, however, is tainted by his infamous bigotry and bountiful prejudice and misogyny.”
