On Monday, August 11th, Firestorm Books will be hosting author Matt Broomfield for an online conversation with scholar Azize Aslan! Together they'll explore Rojava's tireless fight against oppression and how the militant Kurdish movement can help the Western Left relearn its commitment to hope in hopeless times.

Matt's new book published by AK Press, "Hope Without Hope," carries on the long tradition of history, absurdist philosophy, and radical thought that has studied how anti-fascist and anti-colonial movements answer defeat and repression with a revolutionary faith in transformation. Only by understanding this history can we pursue the steadfast work of organizing for long-term revolutionary change in our seemingly hopeless age.

Sign up for this free event and grab a copy of the book at firestorm.coop/events/3440-roj. Can't make the event live? We'll send you a video recording to watch at your convenience!
