Hello from London

[redmist]

Another one looking to join the ranks from London.

Was brought up in a revolutionary home for 19 years, gained a true sense of class consciousness almost overnight (after reading the Manifesto would you believe?!).

Looking to learn and discuss, just ordered a few books, including Das Kapital, The Lost Revolution: Germany 1918 to 1923 and Disappearing Palestine: Israel's Experiments in Human Despair. Any further book advice would be top notch!

Ta!
