Science for the People Magazine

The Science for the People Magazine Archive presents a significant body of work from our antecedents in the radical STEM space. From volume VIII issue 1, the main focus of Science for the People Magazine is "showing that science is a political force serving those who rule; that the questions asked, directions suggested and solutions sought reflect overtly, or subtly, the dominance of the ruling class. "

In this learning club we ask participants to dive into this archive and select 1-2 pieces to present to the group for around 10min depending on time. As a group we will discuss what is still relevant for us today and how we can learn from this documented past.
