UK publishing house Penguin has a long history of bringing US political heavyweights to the Southbank Centre, from Michelle Obama to Hillary Clinton. Now another will be hopping across the pond to talk about their new book and it’s none other than the longest-serving independent in US congressional history (and owner of a very fetching pair of handmade mittens): Bernie Sanders. He’s also the author of ‘It’s OK to Be Angry About Capitalism’, which sees him take on billionaires and Western politics, asking questions like ‘How can we accept a political system that allows the super-rich to buy elections and politicians?’ and ‘How can we accept an energy system that rewards the fossil fuel corporations causing the climate crisis?’ See him call for a political revolution in the flesh at this special panel talk and pick up a copy of the book while you’re there.
