The importance of Karl Marx’s legacy for us people today, in essence, lies in his solution to the problem that History, by definition, is a story full of lies told by its winners.

Karl Marx developed a scientific way of studying history that would systematically expose those lies. With that, Marx gave us a potent tool to study and understand the truth about history – or in other words – the forces that shape our world.

Gert Tjoelker is an accomplished teacher and performer who will take us by the hand and in a most entertaining and illustrative way teach us about Marx’s groundbreaking  theory “historical materialism” – an indispensable tool for activists and change makers of all kinds.

Renowned historian Howard Zinn has crafted the manuscript.
