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

Dear Friends-
Our movement faces a burning question: Do we fall in line behind Clinton’s corporate campaign, or do we continue the political revolution and build a new party for the 99%?

Tens of millions are standing against the tide, resisting a Democratic Party establishment hellbent on forcing Sandernistas behind Wall Street’s “lesser evil” candidate. But how can we build a political alternative to continue the struggle against the billionaire class?

This Saturday join us for a video address from Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein and Seattle’s socialist City Councilmember Kshama Sawant, making the case against backing Clinton as a “lesser evil,” how to stop Trump’s right-wing agenda, and how we can build a left political alternative to continue the political revolution.

We will discuss how to help Jill Stein’s campaign make the biggest possible impact in 2016, how you can help mobilize for the protests at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, July 23-28, and how we can build toward a socialist alternative to this crisis-ridden capitalist system.



    

    
    


            




                        


            



    

   
    
    
                

If you cannot make it to the meeting, you can still be a part of the movement!
Help us mobilize as many Bostonians as possible to the major protests planned for the Democratic National Convention!  The corruption of our democracy by both major parties is clear to millions, and the DNC protests will be the center of the growing debate over whether we should we fight to transform the Democratic Party or build a fighting political alternative independent of corporations and Wall Street Super PACS.

Contribute $25 today to help mobilize during the DNC!
