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

From Socialist Alternative-Bridge of Solidarity across the Americas against Trump's Hatred-Join The Resistance!

1/8/2017 3:19 PM

Friends,

Confronted with Trump's hatred against immigrants from Latin America and his imperial attitude towards our southern neighbors, we will need to build strong ties between US and Latin American people.

Socialist Alternative and Movement for the 99% invited a working class activist and socialist from Mexico city to speak in the US about the resistance against the right wing government there and how to build toward a joint struggle against deportations and the construction of a border wall.

Can you chip in $25 today - to prepare the international solidarity before Trump takes office?

Also in February, there is a gathering of socialist activists from all across Latin America in Brazil. Especially in the Trump age, we think we need to send socialists from the US to attend and discuss the joint resistance.

These are just two initial steps of mutual exchange and visits that we want to step up. We fight racism with international solidarity.

We need to turn Trump's attack into the opportunity to build the strongest links between our movements for social, economic and racial justice - in the US, in Mexico, in the whole of the Americas.
