China's President Xi Jinping and US President Obama hold summit  
meeting in California: review and analysis

China's Xi Jinping is visiting the US the first week in June soon  
after assuming China's highest offices.  An informal summit will be  
held in California; the sooner than anticipated meeting creates some  
optimism for improvement in relations in an atmosphere of US charges  
of Chinese cyberattacks and Chinese concerns about the US "pivot"  
strategy of encirclement.  The China Study Group will review Xi's  
visit to the US and assess the results and impact and US/China  
relations.


Upcoming event:

Special Event! "Lessons of Palestine"
Speaker:  Wadi'h Halabi
Sat. June 22 @ 3 - 5 p.m.

The Palestinian struggle holds important if challenging lessons for  
human liberation worldwide. Some are drawn from the bitter defeats in  
the past seven decades. But there are also important lessons from the  
near-victories led by working-class organizations in the years after  
the 'second catastrophe' of 1967. A presentation and discussion led  
by Wadi'h Halabi of the Center for Marxist Education. Place this one  
on your calendar.
