Activists often describe their work as a fight for or against different things. Some fight against climate change, others against racism, for equality, for freedom, or against colonisation. But why do we talk about fights and wars if we are not carrying real weapons to real fronts, most of the time? How do these descriptions affect the way we work towards our goals? And, most importantly, who does the dishes after the revolution? In this session, we invite everyone to share and discuss the different ways in which they view and value their and their comrades work in various leftist movements and organizations.

The formal education system affects us all. Not only are we forced to attend schools growing up, but academic research shapes our governments, our news, and how we view the world around us. As much as many of us want to believe in the promise of institutional education, the sad fact is that our schools and universities are undemocratic and elitist. They perpetuate inequalities instead of giving people the tools to fight them. This world is fucked.

Here at Radical Sunday School, though, we know that another world is possible. Everyone should be able to direct their own learning, to grow together with their communities, and to live as though they’re already free. There are countless examples of movements already putting these ideas into practice. This collective is trying to follow in their footsteps, organizing to explore new ways of learning based on principles of autonomy, mutual aid, and egalitarianism.

This is not intended to be a course that you would have to follow all the way through. Jump in and out whenever you like. Sessions will be held every Sunday at Joe's Garage.

Doors open at 17.30, we start sharp at 18.00!
