Conference in New York Sept. 21-22
Workers World Party to meet on 'Capitalism in Crisis'
By Deirdre Griswold
The criminal corporate ruling class has frequent strategy
sessions at which its members and hired brains define and
refine how they will deal with the problems of the day to
obtain the desired result: keeping the workers and oppressed
off balance so that exploitation can go on without unpleasant
interruptions.
Of course, they don't put it this way. But that's the
essence behind all their obscure symposiums and dialogues on
the economy, politics, foreign affairs and "civil society."
Workers, on the other hand, have few opportunities to get
together and discuss what is in their class interests in an
environment free of pressure from bourgeois institutions of one
kind or another.
The need to do this is greater than ever. The capitalist
economy is in a mess, and the corrupt, big business government
of George W. Bush thinks it can keep the system from tanking by
launching an unending, global war against the oppressed
countries. What will happen to millions of people is hanging in
the balance.
So Workers World Party has called an emergency conference on
"Capitalism in Crisis" in New York City on Sept. 21-22. That's
where progressive people should be who want to maximize their
skills and effectiveness in fighting against war, racism and
the new form of repression cloaked as "homeland security."
It will also take up the broader question of how to build a
revolutionary movement to change society from the bottom up, to
end the scourge of war, of class division, and all the extra
kinds of oppression that make life hell for so many people.
Fill out the coupon on the
brochure, come to the conference, and get prepared for the
struggles that lie ahead.
