SUMMARY:Spring Educational Series: Socialists and the fight for liberation
DESCRIPTION:Join Spring for a talk and discussion\, “Socialists and the fight for liberation\,” on Sunday\, July 5\, 1pm ET / 10am PT / 2pm AT over Zoom. \nSocialism is most widely known as a movement for fighting class oppression under capitalism. But fighting for a world where everybody is free means taking on more than just the bosses — it means fighting for racial equality\, gender equality\, queer liberation\, Indigenous sovereignty\, and taking on the oppressions faced by workers everywhere. Join us as we discuss the role that socialists play in these fights and the tasks facing us as we continue organizing for a better world. \nThis talk is the third installment of the Spring Educational Series. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Toronto leafleting to support education workers
DESCRIPTION:Join Spring for a leafleting session in support of education workers on Monday\, July 20 at 5pm in Toronto (Bloor and Dufferin)! \nSince 2018\, the Ontario government has cut public education funding by over $6 billion. Support worker and Early Childhood Educator jobs are being slashed while class sizes go up\, leaving teachers and staff to do more with less support. \nTeachers and education workers are heading into collective bargaining\, and they’re fighting for better funding and better learning conditions for students across the province. Join us as we spread the word: supporting public education means supporting the workers who deliver it. \nWe’ll be meeting at the northwest corner of Bloor and Dufferin\, outside Dufferin Station. See you there!

SUMMARY:Toronto Spring meeting: "Black workers vs South African Apartheid: Lessons for Palestine solidarity"
DESCRIPTION:Join Spring’s Toronto chapter organizing meeting on Friday\, July 24\, 6pm at 720 Spadina Ave\, Room 221! \nThe main discussion at this meeting\, “Black workers versus South African Apartheid: Lessons for Palestinian solidarity\,” recenters the self-emancipation of workers in the history of resisting South African Apartheid and asks: what lessons can we draw for building solidarity with Palestine today? When people talk about the fall of Apartheid\, workers’ resistance is often pushed to the margins. But in Durban in 1973\, tens of thousands of Black workers launched strikes that shook South Africa to its core — birthing a militant trade union movement that helped bring Apartheid down. \nWe will also be discussing key political issues as well as socialist strategy and tactics\, building winning campaigns\, and how to be effective socialist organizers in movements. \nThis meeting is open to all Spring members in the GTA and anyone who is interested in getting involved with Spring. \nDoors will be open for light refreshments at 5:30pm and the meeting starts at 6:00pm. We ask everyone to wear a mask. \nPlease email info@springmag.ca with any questions. See you there!
