On Saturday, February 19, at 4:00 pm EST, Left Voice is hosting a special meeting for Black socialists, hosted by Left Voice members Julia Wallace, Carmin Maffea, and Tristan Taylor.

It is crucial to uncover the revolutionary socialist tradition that is a major part of the struggle for Black liberation in the United States, especially during a time period where even the right to teach Black history is being attacked, and it is equally crucial for us to develop our own revolutionary tradition. We must create a space where we can discuss revolutionary theory and strategy collectively that allows us to chart a pathway to liberation, a pathway that requires a socialist revolution against capitalism.

We invite Black socialists and Black people interested in revolutionary socialism to this meeting where we can share stories of the struggles we are participating in, exchange our assessments of the Black Lives Matter movement, and discuss the type of organizations we think we will need to help us fight for the revolutionary aspirations of Black people free from co-optation and reformism.

Train Derailment in Metro Detroit Illustrates That Capitalist Control of the Railroads Is Fundamentally Unsafe

With the capitalists in control of the railroads, they will destroy the environment and poison and kill workers. The catastrophe in East Palestine will not be the last if we don’t nationalize our railroads and put the safety of people and the environment over profit.

The Ohio Train Disaster Is on Biden’s Hands

Just months after President Biden and Congress blocked railway workers from striking over dangerous working conditions, the exact type of disaster that workers predicted has come to pass. The fate of East Palestine must be a wake-up call for the labor and climate movements to fight for the nationalization of the railroads under workers’ control.

Despite Threats of Arrest, Refinery Workers in France Refuse to Break Strike

As energy strikes continue, France is faced with a kerosene shortage that’s creating an urgent situation at the country’s airports. With capitalist profits on the line, the government has attempted to force Normandy refinery workers back to work through an anti-strike legal weapon called requisitions. In their first victory, refinery workers forced the police to withdraw in an incredible demonstration of solidarity.
