The popularity of Bernie Sanders’ campaign shows that many people are seeking out an alternative to capitalism and are for the first time embracing socialism. Each year, the Socialism conference brings together over a thousand people from around the country to discuss and debate strategies for building a better world, free of oppression and exploitation. At Socialism 2016, you can learn about the real Marxist tradition of “socialism from below,” the fight for women’s liberation, the history and politics of Black liberation, the relationship between capitalism and climate change, and many other topics.
So join us in Chicago July 1–4, 2016!
