Description

RMIT Socialist Alternative Club is the left-wing activist club on campus. We are a group of socialist and anti-capitalist students who are involved in fighting for social justice and against inequality and oppression.

The club holds public discussions on a regular basis for members and interested students who want to learn more about socialist ideas and contemporary political issues, and have campaign stalls and working groups throughout the semester. We're constantly involved in promoting rallies and discussing socialist and anti-capitalist politics, as well as a number of different left-wing issues including: climate justice, LGBTI rights, women's rights, fighting racism, refugee rights, inequality and more. If you're interested in getting involved or want to find out more, contact us at:

Meet the Socialists @ RMIT Brunswick

Brunswick Campus - on the grass outside Building 514

Think capitalism sucks and want to get rid of it? Join up with socialists from RMIT to discuss Marxist politics. If you would like to get involved with socialist activism, or even just learn more about what socialism really is, this is the place to be! The discussions are a free short course in the basics of socialist politics, starting with what's wrong with capitalism, before exploring the concept of revolution, the roots of racism, sexism and other oppression, and the true story of the Russian revolution. The RMIT Socialist Club has been involved in fighting against all sorts of oppression - from organising refugee rallies to solidarity with Palestine and anti-fascist action.
