Struggle against racism discussed at book signing

Workers World Managing Editor Monica Moorehead read a selection from the book “Marxism, Reparations and the Black Freedom Struggle,” talked about the struggle against racism today, and led a lively discussion in Buffalo, N.Y., at the community’s new Merriweather Library. Afterwards, Moorehead signed copies of the book she edited, as nearly everyone who came took away a copy, including the library!

Later, at a meeting hosted by the Buffalo International Action Center, Moorehead showed the documentary “Welcome to New Orleans” and spoke on the fight for justice and the right of return for Hurricane Katrina survivors. Julius Dykes, a leader of the Buffalo Workers World branch and longtime auto worker, described his impressions and reactions after his first visit to Cuba this summer with the FIST—Fight Imperialism, Stand Together—youth group.
