The spectre of fascism is with us once again in the 21st century. We know where it leads, how can we prevent catastrophe?
About this Event

Mussolini, Hitler and the Nazi holocaust showed us the true nature of fascism and where it ends up. As politics polarizes once again across Europe, far right politicians are receiving huge votes and winning power. In the UK for the first time since the 1970s fascists are marching on our streets and intimidating meetings of campaigners for Palestine and other causes. How should we understand fascism and what can we learn from history to help us build a successful fight against it this time round.
