Marxism, an introduction for change-makers

There was a time when every radical was one form of Marxist or another. Whether they were student activists, feminists, trade unionists or radical anti-racists. But today, very few people are familiar with the ideas associated with Marx. At the Ella Baker School, we don’t like to see anything go to waste, and we believe that some of Marx’s ideas (and those of some of his followers) can at the very least be the starting point for a discussion about how society is structured, how power is built (and rebuilt) and how change can be effected.So join us as we explore some of the ideas that have inspired generations of change-makers (and no we won’t be treating these ideas as if they are fundamental truths).
