About this Event

How can you fight something if you don't know it exists? We live under an ideology that preys on every aspect of our lives: our education, healthcare, leisure, and the very air we breathe.

George Monbiot is surely Britain’s best journalist. In a lifetime of investigations, he has survived by eating rats in West Papua’s rainforest, been declared legally dead in Kenya, and written 13 books, alongside his popular Guardian column.

He will be joining us to discuss his most recent book The Invisible Doctrine: The Secret History of Neoliberalism.

More importantly, he will share a vision for what comes next.
