About Resist and Rebel

Capitalism is in a worsening crisis across the globe. Israel is intensifying its genocide in Gaza with the help of Trump and Western allies like Australia. Trump has deployed ICE to tear migrants from their homes and deport them. But there has also been resistance. Mass protests chased ICE off the streets in LA, striking port workers in France and Italy have refused to load weapons for Israel. We need to build the resistance here and fight for a socialist world free from war, exploitation, inequality, environmental crisis and oppression.

Join Solidarity for a one day conference to discuss, debate and arm ourselves with the ideas we need to fight back and win.
