About this Event
On the 23rd and 24th of July, join us for a free two-day summer school at Chestnut Grove Academy in Balham, exploring some of the most pressing issues facing us today.
We will look at broad questions of class and culture as well as some contemporary discontents. You will be able to choose between three parallel workshops that will provide a space to discuss and question topics ranging from emergent fascistic cultures, class struggle, football fan cultures, education provision, meritocracy, social infrastructure and much more.
Each day attendees will be able to choose between three parallel sessions based on their interests reflecting these themes. The event will close with a short plenary on the 24th.
