New England Marxism Conference

transgender people.
At the root of the crimes and outrages of this era are the priorities of a capitalist system controlled by a small elite of the wealthiest people. It has never been more urgent to build a left-wing resistance today.
There are struggles for change in many different corners of society, each with their own histories and dynamics. But waging them most effectively requires an understanding of how these issues are connected and how they can lead to a fundamental change that doesn’t just alleviate problems but uproots the system itself.
On November 4, hundreds of socialists and activists from Massachusetts, Maine, Vermont, and throughout New England will gather at the New England Marxism Conference for workshops on Marxist theory, history and practice - and discussions about how to use these politics to build a socialist movement. Whether you’re a seasoned activist or brand new to socialist politics, join us for serious discussion and debate about how to move forward.
