August Socialist Action Newspaper is Out!

And it's finally out and here – the August edition of the Socialist Action Newspaper.

It's late because of the Convention in Kansas City. I wish I could have made it but work and four cats that are terrified of other people made it impossible.

Inside this edition…..

Climate Protests – Against the Democrats during their convention. Great way to start out a convention with people telling them to get real about climate change and the greatest threat to civilization as we know it. Renewable energy now or else…..

Racism: Updates on Killer Baltimore police and the Black Lives Matters movement and their demands. (It's more than a movement – It's a life.)

Labor: Updates on strikes and the $15 NOW movement. If corporations can support multi-million dollar salaries for a bunch of pencil pushing desk jockeys that couldn't do the work that pays their salaries, then someone needs a cut. Just once I'd like to see the vice presidential staff of McDonald's Wendy's, Burger King or other fast food place try to work in a restaurant. That would be a great reality TV show. I don't think any of them could handle a 12 hour shift in a hot kitchen or waiting on customers.)

Education: Chicago teachers and parents demand funding for their schools. Money that they know that Chicago has but doesn't want to use on poor people.

Election News: The Socialist Action Platform – where we stand on the issues.

Election Analysis: Is Hillary a fascist? And what is really meant by that term? A good read. Long and good.

International News: Information on events in Turkey on the coup, Spain and Podemos, and Cuba support for freedom and democracy.

Canadian Comrades: Updates on Canada with Black Lives Matters, the Panama Papers (It is smoking and not in the way you are thinking.) and issues with the NDP leadership.

And for good measure, a film review of “Time to Choose.”

Save the Date: If you can make it, there will be a conference on Socialism in Connecticut on October 22^nd at Central Connecticut State University, AS soon as I find a link, I will post it.
