UNITY BOOKS RENOVATION
For the foreseeable future, Unity is closed for inventory and renovation. Our online store is still open, and private visits to the store can be arranged by email or DM on Instagram and Facebook. Thanks for your continued support!
Unity was proud to hold the launch event for our book ‘STRIKE!’, produced to mark the centenary of the 1926 general strike, in conjunction with Manifesto Press. You can purchase this book on the Manifesto Press website, or pick one up at our store (see pinned post).
Thank you Cathal from the YCL and Muhammad from the Jordanian Democratic Youth League for your session on a Palestinian State: A Right Not a Gift.
A ceasefire is not an end to apartheid, a free Palestinian state, or a right to return. The fight against Zionism continues ✊️🇵🇸 – at Glasgow, Scotland
Cathal has asked us to promote this fundraiser for first aid and rehabilitation rooms in Tulkarem in the West Bank. Please support and share.

Tomorrow at the bookshop! All welcome, just buzz for entry 🇵🇸 – at Glasgow, Scotland
Join us to hear from @yclbritain's Cathal Ó Gaillín and a guest Palestinian speaker from the Jordanian Democratic Youth League on what a Palestinian state means in actions not words and how we in Britain fight for this meaningfully. Attendance is free and all are welcome. 🇵🇸🚩🏴
Our reading group will be meeting again at 6pm on the 25th October to read "Socialism is a Science" by Kim Il Sung. This short text is available to read free online:

Just packed up these 13 vols of Stalin's Collected Works. Sad to see them go, so let us know if you have another set!

A massive thank you to the @marxmemoriallibrary for sending up 30 boxes and thousands of materials from their collection. It'll take us a long time to get through everything, but we're enjoying the work! Some amazing bits of history 🚩📚✊️ – at Glasgow, Scotland
Solidarity from Glasgow to Kolkata! 🏴🇮🇳✊️ This month we sent 23 Soviet novels and other books over 5,000 miles to an aficionado in West Bengal. Thank you to Comrade Bornil from the Communist Party of India (Marxist) and for the pictures with you and your dad 😊📚🚩

Communists, Trade Unionists and supporters of Cuba met in @unitybookshop to commemorate the 26th July, celebrate the achievements of Cuban socialism, and to raise funds to bypass the US-imposed embargo. Viva el 26 de Julio! Viva Cuba! 🇨🇺🏴
The strength of the Cuban revolution continues to inspire us with hope for a better world. We met yesterday to share stories and raise funds for supplies that will put a small crack in the US' imperialist blockade. Support @CubaSolidarity and long live Cuba! 🇨🇺🚩✊️ – at Glasgow, Scotland
Come along to this tomorrow after we close! All funds raised go to defending the revolution in Cuba 🚩🇨🇺✊
