SUMMARY:Online reading group: Socialist journalism
DESCRIPTION:As Malcolm X warned\, “if you’re not careful\, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed\, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” How can socialists challenge the ideas of the corporate media?

Join us for a discussion of socialist writing\, filming\, posting and media of all kinds.\nSuggested Readings: \n\n\n\nWriting while socialist: http://bostonreview.net/global-justice/vijay-prashad-mark-nowak-writing-while-socialist\nUnfortunately\, we can’t log off: https://jacobinmag.com/2018/12/log-off-social-media-twitter-organizing-facebook\nThe revolutionary press: https://www.marxists.org/archive/harman/1984/xx/revpress.html\nWhat is to be done: The website as organizer: https://www.jadaliyya.com/Details/27025 or video from the author\, Revolution 2.0?

SUMMARY:West Coast Reading Group: Marxism & Oppression
DESCRIPTION:One of the reasons we fight for revolutionary change is to put an end to oppression. It is important to truly acknowledge\, not just the objective truths of the violence capitalism forces on us\, but the ways in which this violence is measured\, spread\, and reproduced. Marxists are often accused of ‘class reductionism\,’ that is\, that all forms of oppression faced by the masses of marginalized peoples is a product of the class struggle.\n\n  \nWhile it is true that those most oppressed by the ruling class are often members of historically and systemically marginalized groups\, we do not all face oppression under capitalism the same way. Today\, we are more multiracial\, more openly LGBTQ2SA+\, more disabled\, and more upset than ever.\n\nJoin Spring for an online discussion on this topic and how we can best unite and fight in our time for a better world.\n  \n\nResources: \n\nRussia 1917: gender\, class and the Bolsheviks (https://marxistleftreview.org/articles/russia-1917-gender-class-and-the-bolsheviks/)\nRevolution in the 21st Century; chps 10-12 (https://www.marxists.org/archive/harman/2007/revolution/index.html)\nMarxism\, Exploitation\, and Oppression (https://wearemany.org/a/2018/07/marxism-exploitation-and-oppression)\n\nTo RSVP via Facebook click here \nEmail info@springmag.ca for zoom link
