MARK SOLOMON
"The Transforming Potential of the Political Moment"

In a moment of festering economic crisis and undisguised class warfare
against working people, resistance is also growing. Movements to prevent
environmental catastrophe, defend social programs under fierce attack and to
end military interventions and war need a strong, principled voice on the
left. That voice is needed to connect the issues, unite the movement and
advance a vision of a just new society.That is a crucial task well worth
exploration and realization.

Mark Solomon, Professor Emeritus of History at Simmons College, holds
degrees from Wayne State University, the University of Michigan and Harvard
University. He has written scores of articles on African American history,
race and racism, U.S. foreign policy, globalization, and war and peace
issues which have appeared in both scholarly and popular journals. Prof.
Solomon has also traveled and lectured in Europe, Asia, and the Caribbean.
