🎺 JUST OVER A WEEK AWAY 🎺

Book Launch: Capital Condensed by Colin Chalmers, 23rd November, 6.30pm

Transform Brighton & Hove will be hosting the launch event for Colin Chalmer's new book Capital Condensed: A Short Guide to Marx's Capital for Our Age of Global Crises.

"Capital Condensed is a short but detailed guide to the 18 parts of the three volumes of Marx’s Capital. It takes you step-by-step through Marx’s investigation into capital from its origins in commodity production to the monster it is today.

In a world where the need for fundamental change has never been more urgent, the results of this investigation have never been more relevant."

After a short hiatus Transform Brighton and Hove is back! Join us to bring together the local community and groups fighting for social change to realise our shared struggles and conflicts within Brighton, the UK, and the rest of the world. We'll be delivering poltical education and events all year round, culminating in a new festival in 2024!

Our first event is a screening of FINITE: The Climate of Change at Wagner Hall Wednesday 28th May 6:30pm.

Ticket link in the description!

_In Germany, concerned citizens step forward to save an ancient forest from one of Europe’s biggest coal mines. They form an unlikely alliance with a frustrated community in rural England who are forced into action to protect their homes from a new opencast coal mine. FINITE: The Climate of Change is an insider’s view of the world of direct action; a raw, authentic and emotional insight into the David and Goliath battle between front line communities, activists and fossil fuel corporations.

FINITE is a cinematic, timely insider’s view of the world of direct action and climate activism; a raw, shocking, intimate and emotional insight into the David and Goliath battle between ordinary people and fossil fuel corporations._

💕 Event Announcement 💕

We are delighted to be working in collaboration with , and .thepoet to bring you this incredibly special evening!

Mikaela has just published her first book titled It's Not That Radical: Climate Action To Transform Our World and has been hosting launch events across the country since April.

On the 18th of May, it's coming to Brighton! One of Mikaela's real focuses in the book and the rest of her work is connecting people with community and that is where we come in. We have put together an Activism and Local Opportunities Fair that will be happening within this event to showcase all the incredible work different groups are doing in our city.

We are really sorry to say that tickets are completely sold out for this event. We did not get our ducks in a line quick enough to advertise it here before this 🦆

BUT keep watching this space! Transform Brighton and Hove has had new life breathed into it recently and we have big and exciting things in the works for the coming summer.

In the meantime: keep organising; unionising; demonstrating and building community, and together we will TRANSFORM Brighton and Hove!
