The Freedom Shop Aotearoa

The Freedom Shop Collective invites you to a discussion of grassroots strategy, organisation and issues for the left in the wake of the continuing failure of electoral politics. This is an opportunity to discuss how the activist left can make progress at this time, after a general decline in its impacts.  What are our strengths and weaknesses? Can we learn from history or do we need to re-invent our movement? What issues and strategies should we consider? When: 7pm, Tuesday, 25 November 2014 Where: 19 Tory Street, Wellington We are inviting speakers from a variety of left groups to give a short presentation on this theme, followed by general discussion.
