Pre-Drinks 6 Articles to Read in Preparation for the New Left Party

Great little dessert island political organising literature @medicinered.bsky.social

Funny how Corbyn era 1.0 was "JC, no surrender, 4 day week and a 3 day bender " and now it's "JC, no surrender, stop enabling a literal genocide".

Not that the stakes weren't high before but...

Great episode on the Dialectics of Liberation conference held in London in 1967; a chaotic happening held at the height of sixties counterculture and featuring some of its figureheads, including Allen Ginsburg, Herbert Marcuse, & Stokely Carmichael.

This was (as always) a fantastic and timely episode. Made me think deeply about the injustices of labour in healthcare and the artificial and unhelpful capital-driven divide between those who give and receive care. Highly recommended for anyone interested in health justice.

An Introduction to Workers' Self-Management w/ Jess Thorne Red Medicine Β· Episode

Was great to chat with @medicinered.bsky.social about histories of worker self-management and the example of the Lucas Plan.

Trade unionists used to speak the language of workers' control. We need to learn that language again, and fast.

An Introduction to Workers' Self-Management w/ Jess Thorne Red Medicine Β· Episode

Another great pod from @medicinered.bsky.social. @jlthorne.bsky.social discusses worker self management - the Lucas Plan, and reaches conclusions congruent with our forthcoming Radical Abundance book. We must move beyond defensive struggle to propositional politics.

Americans didn’t always worship at the altar of hustle culture. From 19th-century success pamphlets to gig economy platitudes, our podcast of the week traces the rise of the entrepreneurial work ethic.

as students are being thrown into vans and deported for school paper op eds I can’t help but think about the years many of the most well compensated and secure intellectuals in the US had the courage to sign so many letters about the dangerous climate of left wing censoriousness
