Remembering Karl Marx

“Remembering the immortal Karl Marx whose teachings remains so relevant a century and a half later. Karl Marx peered deeply into the struggles of the working-class of his day and observed carefully the structures of exploitation. It was in Capital (1867) that Marx laid out his theory of capitalism – a theory that moved millions to clarify their struggles for a better world. Without theory there can be no precise revolutionary movement; without struggle there can be no definite theory. “Communism is for us not a state of affairs which is to be established, an ideal to which reality will have to adjust itself” wrote Marx and his friend Engels. “We call communism the real movement which abolishes the present state of things.” [1]

Lastly, acTVism Munich plans to cover the demonstration that will take place on the 11th of June, 2016, against the US-military base in Ramstein, which is known for conduction drone operations worldwide. We are planning on creating a public awareness video in which experts, that have worked extensively against U.S foreign bases such as John Lindsay, Bruce Gagnon, Wilbert van der Zeijden, Joseph Gerson and Noam Chomsky, will talk about the how such bases impact the environment, economy and safety of the communities surrounding them.

Unfortunately, acTVism Munich has very limited financial resources and requires your immediate support to materialize these projects. From transportation, lodging, food, production, translation, and other costs, given our capacities, it will be a very difficult task for us to execute as a non-profit and volunteer-based organization.These projects depend only on you – please support us today by donating via PayPal or Bank transfer by clicking here!
