website

Venue: 62 Fieldgate St, Shadwell, London E1 1ES

Organiser: Next Revolution Reading Group & KSN's Education Group

NRRG came out of reading organised at last years Anarchist Festival on Radical Municipalism. The Education Working Group is part of the Kurdistan Solidarity Network, active across the UK in solidarity work with the Kurdish Freedom Movement. (Both groups share anti-state, anti-capitalist, anti-oppressive aims & principles, and structural organisation.)

The Kurdish Freedom Movement has been integral to the Feminist, Ecological & Democratic Confederalist revolution in Northern Syria (Rojava) for much of this decade. We will be introducing the resistance and struggle for autonomy, with a short 24 min video, after which we invite members of the public to participate in a discussion about the issues raised. (This is a joint event between London’s Next Revolution Reading Group (NRRG) & the Kurdistan Solidarity Network’s (KSN) Education Working Group. Open to all members of the public.)
