how can he study?

they assign me books to read
i go read them
we discuss it
i sell papers with them and do various other political work
they test my ability to defend the program and marxism

repeat

Sounds... fun.

actually it is

cause I learn alot from the readings
i get to interact with Unions
participate in protests
my cravings for debates are met
and I made some awesome friends out of it.
I just stayed over at my comrades place friday night and it was apolitical fun.

Ya, i've had friends of mine involved with them. It's a really great way to learn quickly of socialism and class struggle. Stick with em, i say, but don't let them shape your ideals for you.

I think this site may provide a nice contrast to your studies. Enjoy your time, and i hope to debate with you in the near future comrade.

yeah i went in with my own beliefs and hoped to contrast my political beliefs with theirs.

What i love about them is that unlike fake socialist groups like the ISO and RCP, they will debate with me and challenge the beliefs i have that ARE different and then allow me to make my own decisions. I entered as a Black nationalist and the more i read about black nationalism the more i broke from it. They don't demand that i agree they will just offer counterpoised positions to see what i htink of them. The more i read by lenin, trotsky, marx, engels, etc. the more my materialist understanding of class struggle expands. I call myself a marxist now because of what i understand and read.

have you read their marxist paper "Marxism vs. Anarchism" it's quite interesting dude.

anyway. We also need to understand that NO ONE is a born marxist and in such a reactionary time period it is impossible to ever totally immerse yourself in Marxism. I take an American Politics class, American History, ethnic studies, i debate with my friends, I am immersed in people with different beliefs with them and they challenge me everyday. I have reached a point where i can debate with my professors on par so...i like debating with people with different interests but i am fairly certain i will always take the path of a marxist from here on out.

where do you live?

you should come to the United Front Protest to Free Mumia Abu-jamal and we would be able to talk and exchange beliefs there...

I used to be an anarchist before I understood class struggle. Now I know that the state can't be eliminated before class antagonisms are.

yeah

class struggle showed me that a revolution cannot be achieved by dividing the classes by race.

I need to unite with my class brothers black and white to achieve liberation of all the oppressed

No, but if you supply a link, i would be more than happy to do so.

Around the Denver metro area.

As i said before, it is quite unlikely. I'm lumpen it at the moment, and for some reason, vagabonding is becoming more difficult as of late (people becoming more greedy [uh-oh], perhaps?)

But if you came out to MacArthur park, i can almost guarentee you i'll be there for May Day.

I'm in cali...XP

and Mumia was a leader of the panther party at 15 dude...defend your class brother lol

I'm in Illinois. It's boring here.

you should check out our section in chicago

and the protest for mumia on the 26th...

so much labor power over there

I think you're going slightly overboard with the mumia thing. Yeah he's innocent and whatnot. okay. We get it.

No offense.

Well it's a classic example of the state not being neutral an d their not being ANY justice in the capitalist courts.

this is an example of class struggle and is a great opportunity to bridge people's consciousness of racism to class struggle.

AN INJURY TO ONE IS AN INJURY TO ALL
