Socialist Victory in Seattle! Build the campaign for 15 Now Today! @ UMass Boston Thursday, February 20th 1pm, Room 2545, 2nd Floor  Campus Center Socialist Alternative captured the attention of thousands of working class people across the country by running Kshama Sawant for City Council in Seattle and winning with over 90,000 votes. We ran an openly socialist and working class campaign without a dime of funding from big business or the political establishment. This victory is a warning shot to big business that working people are fed up with poverty wages, budget cuts, student debt, tax cuts for the wealthiest 1%, and endless recession with no recovery in sight. But now that we've won this victory, many people are asking what does this mean for working people in New England, and how to we carry this momentum forward? In Seattle, Kshama Sawant and Socialist Alternative have used this victory to launch the 15 Now campaign, calling for a $15/hr minimum wage for all workers. This campaign won't be build by cutting deals in the halls of power, we are going to build this campaign at the grassroots level in the communities that need it most. Socialist Alternative is having a public meeting today at UMass Boston to discuss the victory in Seattle, the 15 Now campaign, and how people can plug in to this historic movement.  If you want more info about these meetings, or if you have questions about the 15 Now campaign or joining Socialist Alternative, please email us at boston@socialistalternative.org, and an organizer will get back to you right away.
