A panel of revolutionary speakers gathered on August 12 at the Everything for Everyone Festival. The engagement was marked both by unities and diversity.
The talks confronted a key issue facing communist regroupment and action: How do we build a revolutionary movement today in the belly of this beast?
Let’s engage this discussion — and deepen our common purpose.
The audio of each talk is presented here in YouTube and MP3 format — in the order that they spoke at the E4E plenum.

Kasama is a communist project for the forcible overthrow and transformation of all existing social conditions. We are open to learning, unafraid to admit our own uncertainties. We will not shrink from what we do know: the solutions cannot be found within the current world order or the choices it provides. We are for revolution. We seek to find the forms of organization and action for the people most dispossessed by this system to free themselves and all humanity.
To take this road, we need a fearless, open-eyed debate, discussion and engagement. We need fresh analyses of the rapid changes shaping the world around us. We need to sum up a century of revolutionary strategies and attempts, victories and defeats – instead of the conventional wisdom and facile verdicts that paralyze our movements. We need to re-imagine a radical politics that can take life among people and move mountains.
