Marxism Day Schools
Millions of people have come to the conclusion that capitalism is no longer working. And millions of people around the world are fighting back--from the struggle against police violence in Ferguson, to the resistance against Israeli war and occupation, to the radicalizing movement for climate change justice.
Marxism provides a revolutionary understanding and strategy for ridding society of exploitation and oppression once and for all. We want more than just resistance--we want to win. Please join the International Socialist Organization for our Regional Marxism Conferences--a day of discussion and debate on Marxist theory, history and politics. Our goal is to understand the world in order to change it!
