Workers Can Win – Book tour & workshop

Saturday 26 November, 2022 @ 12:30 - 15:00

Pay-what-you-can

Join Bristol Transformed for an afternoon with Ian Allinson, who’s been taking his new book “Workers Can Win” up and down the country to inspire new organisers and give them the tools they need to win working-class power. We’ll be asking Ian how the book came about, what’re the most important lessons he’s learnt, and what even is organising anyway? Following the conversation with Ian, you’ll take part in a workshop that will give you a taste of some of the ideas and techniques from the book and get you thinking about how you can take them forwards into your own workplace. The event will end with an opportunity to ask Ian and other experienced organisers anything you’ve ever wanted to know about moving your colleagues to action and winning at work.

The Covid, climate, and cost of living crises all hang heavy in the air. It’s more obvious than ever that we need radical social and political change. But in the vacuum left by defeated labour movements, where should we begin? For Ian, the answer is clear: organizing at work is essential to rebuilding working-class power. The premise is simple: organizing builds confidence, capacity, and collective power – and with power, we can win change. Workers Can Win is an essential, practical guide for rank-and-file workers and union activists.

We ask attendees to give £4 that goes towards our costs of the event. If you feel unable to afford that but still wish to attend please get in touch and we’ll happily send you a ticket.

Tickets available from Headfirst.
