Every member will have the opportunity to lead discussion(s) on issues and short readings of their choice.<br><br>Topics will range wherever member interest leads around questions like:<br><br>What are the lessons—positive and negative- of past socialist organizing?<br>What are the most explosive weaknesses and
contradictions of capitalism today and how can we take advantag of them?<br>What sectors among the oppressed are in motion and how can we strengthen their struggles?<br>What forms of organization make sense in the current era?<br>What on the ground experiments are most promising worldwide and what can we learn from them for the US?<br><br>We expect, in fact welcome disagreements, asking only that participants commit to comradely debate. We especially urge activists new to socialism to join in.<br><br>We may have to limit participation if numbers become too unwieldy –so reserve your spot today. Don’t miss out on your chance to debate with and learn from fellow activists!<br><br>To reserve a space or get more info contact the<br>REP:<br><a ymailto="mailto:repboston@gmail.com" href="mailto:repboston@gmail.com">repboston@gmail.com</a><br>mailto:<a ymailto="mailto:repboston@gmail.com"
