“It is not light that we need, but fire; it is not the gentle shower, but thunder. We need the storm, the whirlwind, and the earthquake.” – Frederick Douglass

Richard Barbrook will be talking about his new book ‘Class Wargames: ludic subversion against spectacular capitalism’ – the ideal Xmas present for the radicals in your life!
