It has never been more clear. Capitalism is a system organized around one thing: the rate of profit that can be obtained by a tiny minority at the expense of the majority. As the experience of Hurricane Harvey has demonstrated, this economic system is putting the lives of all of us—indeed, humanity as a whole-- at risk. Can anyone today truly argue that environmental exploitation and injustice, war, under-employment, poverty, racism, sexism, and homophobia are not integral to the working of the system? There is a solution. Humanity CAN organize the world in a new way that is rooted in equity, justice, and cooperation. Join us for our 2nd annual one-day educational conference and find out why we are confident that the rich history of working class struggle and theory can guide us in the fight for a socialist future.
