AMERICAN LEFT HISTORY

This space is dedicated to the proposition that we need to know the history of the struggles on the left and of earlier progressive movements here and world-wide. If we can learn from the mistakes made in the past (as well as what went right) we can move forward in the future to create a more just and equitable society. We will be reviewing books, CDs, and movies we believe everyone needs to read, hear and look at as well as making commentary from time to time. Greg Green, site manager

15 Now New England

Day of Organizing

Working people in New England need a raise. We can't rely on the two parties of Wall St to give it to us, we need to build a movement of working people to win it. That is why we are having an open conference this weekend in Boston to launch the campaign for 15 Now New England. We will have speeches and workshops to discuss how we will win this important demand. Workshops will include:

-Organizing 15 Now in the Workplace

-The 15 Now Toolkit

-Getting 15 Now on the Ballot

-15 Now and the Struggle for Women's Rights

This is going to be the beginning of an important movement for workers rights in New England and across the nation. Tomorrow is your chance to be on the ground floor. We need 15 Now, because the rent won't wait.

For any questions about this event or about the campaign for 15 Now, please email us at 15NowNewEngland@gmail.com or call (857) 615-5082

For admission we ask for a donation of around $5, but no one will be turned away because they cant pay.
