The first part of an animated video series explaining socialism
This video is the first collaboration between The Mole and Counterfire taking a look at the historical roots of the revolutionary idea of socialism, and seeks to help the viewer to understand the context that frames today’s struggle for a true democratic system, that can finally deliver social and environmental justice.
The series is based on Counterfire’s Socialist Explainers book which you can find out more about and buy from our online shop. You can read more socialist theory on our website here.
