May 1: For an International of Socialist Revolution

The online rally presented the manifesto The Capitalist Disaster and the Struggle for an International of Socialist Revolution. That manifesto was published two weeks ago by the groups that make up the Trotskyist Fraction — Fourth International and publish the online newspapers of the Left Voice / La Izquierda Diario network.

As the manifesto says:

The purpose of this manifesto, released by the Trotskyist Fraction — Fourth International, is to resume the debate on the need for a movement for a revolutionary socialist international. It is aimed at the youth, the working class, and the oppressed who are beginning to mobilize and who have been at the forefront of the wave of mass rebellions and general strikes around the world. […] Our aim is to recover a revolutionary, internationalist, and socialist perspective in order to destroy a system that deserves to perish. This manifesto is also intended for organizations and individuals of the Trotskyist movement and internationalist organizations that agree on the importance of moving forward in the debate on the proposal of a movement for a Revolutionary Socialist International, based on the lessons learned from class struggle.

Left Voice Magazine for April 2024 — Labor Notes Edition!

In this issue, we delve into the state and future of the labor movement today. We take a look at the prospects for Palestinian liberation through the lens of Leon Trotsky’s theory of Permanent Revolution, and discuss the way that Amazon has created new conditions of exploitation and how workers across the world are fighting back.

The Movement for Palestine Needs Independent, Working-Class Politics

As the brutal genocide of Palestinians continues with the help of the Biden administration, there is maneuver underway to co-opt the movement for Palestine. We need to have a democratic and independent movement that relies on the power of the working class, the student movement, and mobilizations in the streets.

Against the Criminalization of Opinion and in Defense of Our Right to Support Palestine: We Must Stand Up!

In France, the repression of Palestine supporters is escalating. A conference by La France Insoumise (LFI) has been banned; a union leader has been arrested and charged for speaking out for Palestine; court cases have increased against those who “condone terrorism”; and the state has stepped up its “anti-terrorism” efforts. In the face of all this, we must stand together.
