Sunday Morning At The Marxist Library

 

UPCOMING PROGRAMS

(NOTE: These are all tentative and may be changed. Please check back the week before, or sign up for our weekly reminders/updates at cuyleruyle@mac.com)

Our Sunday morning programs are scheduled pretty much on a “first come, first served” basis and confirmed at our planning sessions. The opinions expressed are those of the speakers only and do not represent a group consensus on the issues by the members of ICSS. Our general practice is to allot at least half of the time to comradely discussion of the issues so that we include as many voices as practical 

Sun, May 31, 2020: 10:30 am to 12:30 pm
Revolutionary Organizations in the U.S.
Lenin advocated for and created a revolutionary socialist party of a ‘new type’, more than 100 years ago. What kind of socialist organizations are required in the USA today? What revolutionary organizations are here already and how are they faring? After a short presentation by ICSS member Riichard Fallenbaum, there will be an open discussion in which participants will present their own observations and evaluations.

LOG-IN INFORMATION
Long-in Information will be included in our weekly  Reminder email on Friday.
