A message from the editor
Dear Reader:
These are serious times. The Bush government is trying to
dismantle what remains of social protection--just as economic
crisis looms..
These are hopeful times. The struggle is growing against
racism, sexism and gender oppression--the reactionary forces
that attempt to divide the people's movement. There is
widespread anger against a government that steals elections
and takes its orders directly from big business.
Workers World for over 40 years has analyzed, mobilized
and educated on every issue of importance to progressive
activists. Our writers go wherever there is news to report
that you can't get anywhere else.
What's happening in Cuba? Iraq? Yugoslavia? Korea?
Palestine? We've given you first-hand accounts that tear a
hole in the official lies and censorship.
What's happening here in the struggle against racism? For
Mumia Abu-Jamal and Leonard Peltier? For immigrant workers?
On the labor front? For lesbian, gay, bi and trans rights?
For a woman's right to choose?
Every week, Workers World gives you the highlights of
these movements.
And we analyze how it all fits into the bigger
picture--the historic struggle against capitalist domination
of the world, the struggle for the socialist future.
This is a plea for money. The green stuff without which
there can be no office,
no computers, no lights, no printing, no postage.
We need money badly.
So we've launched a special Spring Fund Drive.
Rents and prices keep going up, but our class has been
getting poorer. In the long run the economic downturn that
hurts the bosses will build our movement. In the long run.
But right now, we're in the same cash crunch as most
workers.
Do you want this paper to keep bringing the class truth to
workers in this country? Then please, dig down deep and send
us a contribution that will make a real difference.
Thanks for helping fill the void created by the corporate
media whiteout.
