Rebuilding labour movement education at the Marx Memorial Library
MEIRIAN JUMP explains how the MML is developing its proud history of trade union education for activists to build their knowledge of struggle and class analysis

TRADE union militancy is in the ascendancy, with many young members engaged in industrial action for the first time.
How can labour movement educators harness this opportunity? What does non-sectarian political education look like today, and how can we deliver? How can an understanding of sex and race discrimination enrich a class analysis?
These were some of the questions posed at the Marx Memorial Library’s conference on the future of trade union education earlier this year.
