Description
The spirit of James Connolly looms large in the pantheon of Irish historical figures. It is less well known that Connolly was a revolutionary Marxist committed to the destruction of capitalism. The 100th anniversary of the Easter Rising and Connolly's death gives socialists the world over the chance to relate to a new audience engaging with Connolly for the first time and to rediscover his unique contributions to the international socialist movement.
