Socialist Night School: Undoing Racialized Power,
Poverty and Wealth: Socialism as Antidote to U.S. Capitalism's White
Supremacy October 12th, 6:30PM
It's hard enough to have racial justice with capitalists
because the system is built on inequality and scarcity, real and
perceived. But, in addition, U.S. capital and power was built on the
genocide and displacement of Indigenous people and the enslaved labor
of Black people and so power/wealth has racists roots. How can
socialists begin to address the legacies and realities of racialized
wealth and power within our ranks and the world at
large?
