Revolution! Scotland - Capitalism, War & Resistance

Counterfire Scotland presents its second Revolution! festival.

Join us as we discuss a world facing dangerous crises. Continuing inflation means many people are simply unable to afford basics. The NHS, schools and transport systems are close to collapse. Governments everywhere put commercial interests before the climate emergency and capitalist competition is spreading war.

All this at a time when the rich are getting richer than ever, and the far right is making inroads in political life everywhere. The interlocking crises demand a response that can deliver for ordinary people, here and across the planet.

The Revolution! festival brings together writers, activists and campaigners to analyse the roots of the crises we face and how the left should respond.

The line-up includes Ghassan Abu-Sittah, Cat Boyd, George Kerevan, Kate Connelly, Sophie Johnson, Jonathon Shafi and many more.
