21st Century Class Struggle: Political Economy for Fighting Capitalism

The current radical social movements are building on the anti-capitalism of the Occupy Movement of 2011 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupy_movement). The critical need is for movement activists to sink deep roots among the masses of the most exploited people, working class and poor people.

Capital is in crisis, and the politicians of this class are deeply divided over how to rule, how to organize the government to maintain capital accumulation and a stable social order. Now is the time to raise the consciousness of the masses of people as to how the game is going down, and what can be done to make fundamental social change. Now is our time to make a difference.

These materials are part of this process. The Southern Workers Assembly held a workers school and invited me to make four presentations. Help yourself to the talks as a pamphlet, as videos, and as slides. Mash up the slides and make your own presentation. The goal is to deepen our collective understanding of the capitalist system and how to fight it.
