Bernie Sanders has been rallying the anti-Trump resistance on a cross-country “Fight Oligarchy” tour of the US and drawing record crowds. Now he brings his fight to London, live on stage with James O’Brien.
The independent senator from Vermont has been rallying the anti-Trump resistance on a cross-country “Fight Oligarchy” tour of the US and drawing record crowds, with over 30,000 people attending his Denver, Colorado rally with Democratic New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
Now, Bernie takes to the UK stage at a critical moment in history. As Donald Trump’s second presidency reshapes America, and with democracy under threat, he is refusing to stay silent. While others look away, Bernie is confronting a dangerous reality: an oligarchy tightening its grip on democracy, and the rise of authoritarian rule.
Mass firings of US government workers, unchecked corporate influence with an agenda to dismantle international democratic institutions, and a system that moves to serve only the wealthy: this is the battle Bernie refuses to ignore. How can we resist governments that work to destroy democratic institutions and put power in the hands of the wealthy few?
Live on stage in London alongside journalist, writer and presenter James O’Brien, Bernie will present an alternative vision. What might be possible, he asks, if we start with the principle that economic rights are human rights, and work together to create a society that provides them?
As the longest-serving independent in the US Congress, Bernie Sanders has never backed down–and now, he’s calling on you to stand with him:
“European Friends: We must stand tall against global oligarchy, authoritarianism, devastating attacks against the working class and the existential threat of climate change. This is a moment of enormous consequence in world history. If we stand together, we can win”– Bernie Sanders
