Dear
friend,
You are invited to
participate in a special National Conference on the weekend
of December 6-7 in New York City. The theme of the conference
is "Reviving the struggle for worldwide
socialism."
The Conference on
Socialism is sponsored by Workers World Party and will be
held at Martin Luther King Jr. Auditorium, which is at
Amsterdam Avenue & West 65 Street, in Manhattan. The
conference begins at 10 am on Saturday, with registration
starting at 9 am.
This is a public
conference open to all who are interested in participating in
a dialogue on socialism and on the need to revive the
socialist movement. The conference program will include
invited guests as well as leaders of WWP. Speakers and
workshop facilitators will represent national liberation
movements and struggles against imperialism, repression and
war and those involving labor, immigrants, prisoners,
communities of color, women, lesbian/gay/bi/trans, youth, and
more.
There has never
been a better time to focus on strengthening our solidarity
with the people of the world--from Iraq and Palestine, to
Zimbabwe, Colombia, and the Philippines. The struggle against
the war has brought more of us together, here and around the
world, than at any time in history. Yet there is a hunger for
something more, something that gives our protest, our
thinking, our unity even greater purpose. Something that
clarifies the issues and views that we advance.
What gives a
greater purpose to our struggle is a passionate determination
to replace the misery, deprivation, hopelessness and violence
of capitalism with a socialist future. It is a conviction
that revolutionary action by the international working class
can put an end to capitalist oppression. The Conference on
Socialism will examine revolutionary change in its
relationship to every struggle. We hope that you will join
us.
Please help get
out the word about this exciting conference. The outreach
effort was launched at the massive October 25 anti-war
marches in Washington and San Francisco, where nearly 10,000
flyers were distributed. The response was terrific, with many
people signing up to attend. Please feel free to invite
anyone you think would be interested in participating. If you
have any questions, ideas, or suggestions about the
conference, please call the New York office at 212-627-2994
or email us at conference@workers.org.
You can also
assist by making a financial contribution. The expenses
of hosting a conference of this scope in New York are
considerable--from hall rental, to guest transportation and
accommodations, to publicity. Your donation will contribute

Yours in the
struggle,
Monica
