Who We Are
We are the political education committee. Our goal is to support the intellectual and cultural growth of our members and the community at-large.
What We Do
Our political education work takes many forms. Our monthly book club, the Flint Hills Socialist Book Club, brings members together to read and discuss works spanning Marxist theory, labor history, feminist and anti-racist politics, decolonial thought, and more, creating space for the kind of sustained, collective intellectual engagement that transforms how we see the world. We curate lists of podcasts and videos that make socialist ideas accessible to everyone. Film screenings and documentary discussions connect political theory to lived experience, grounding abstract ideas in the concrete histories of working-class struggle.
Drawing on a broad tradition, from the labor education movements of the early twentieth century to the Freedom Schools of the Civil Rights era to the popular education methodology of Paulo Freire, comrade Derron is developing an open source curriculum called The People’s Free School.
