@OfficialUoM @kevgillan @MCRSociology @movementsMcr @BlackwellsMcr “Marxism isn’t just about theory, it’s about action.” Simin talks about revolutionary leaders with the idea of liberation or freedom and combining this with strategy and tactics, and trustworthiness, to win in their various struggles. Without this movements lose cohesion & fail.
