Red Wedge #3: "The Return of the Crowd"
$6.00
Seventy pages on the return of "the crowd" to modern politics and its meaning for a new, vital, radical cultural practice. From Nuit Debout and Black Lives Matter on our end of the spectrum, to the horrifying rise of Donald Trump and right-wing populism, there is no getting round the fact that "the masses," in some form, matter to politics again. How this impacts the formation of a new left, along with the practice of musicians, writers, painters and sculptors, filmmakers and performers, is an open question. One with a huge amount of meaning for the imagination of radical social change.
