ASC ---- SATURDAY, 14TH DECEMBER, 11-1 GAZA DEMO See SPSC FB for details SATURDAY, 14TH DECEMBER, 1-5 NEUTRAL MARKET (SPECIAL RADICAL CAFE EVENT) Bring and Donate Day with funds going to our friends at Collectif Zone Neutre, a collective for people who don't have the right papers and who are currently squatting in Brussels. See attached flyer. SUNDAY, 15TH DECEMBER, 2-4 ASC MONTHLY MEETING WEDNESDAY, 18TH DECEMBER, 6.30 - 8 RADICAL FILM CLUB A note from colleague Keith Paterson who has an event Wednesday 11th December, 12-2 at the Bobbin bar on King Street. 'Marx's Method - Understanding Capitalism'. Independent Researcher Keith Paterson presents his lecture series on contemporary economics and the rhetoric of 'catastrophe capitalism' within mainstream economics. The series is open to any student, worker or community activist in Aberdeen interested in how capitalism works. The first meeting will be quite informal and introduces the series with a session on Marx's Method - how he went about the task of understanding capitalism. The underlying theme of the meetings, however, is not just to understand the system, but to consider how to change it. -- Aberdeen Social Centre aberdeensocialcentre(a)riseup.net https://aberdeensocialcentre.org
