“…There are any number of good ideas on how to mobilize; all should be implemented as vigorously as possible.
The future of humanity depends on what we do at this critical juncture. Capitalism is literally at a dead end and can do very little to solve the major crises impacting the globe, whether it’s the pandemic, catastrophic climate change, fires in California, or health care, housing, food and jobs for the people.
As a system, capitalism is so tied to the exploitation of Black and Brown people and immigrants that it finds itself unable to respond to even the most modest demand to respect Black bodies.
Socialism is the answer. At this juncture, the wolf is at the door and it will take unity and boldness to stop it.”

During this current period of economic and public health crises along with the eruption of mass demonstrations, urban rebellions and sharpening debates around the objective nature of the state and the capitalist-imperialist system, the work of Dr. Rodney becomes even more relevant.Before Walter Rodney was assassinated he was a renowned Pan-African and socialist theorist on the Bolshevik Revolution and its relationship to Africa’s post-colonial legacy. Abayomi Azikiwe will lead the discussion. His scholarly approach will allow us to find insights and create a deeper understanding of this extraordinary work.
ABOUT WALTER RODNEY
In his short life, Guyanese intellectual Walter Rodney emerged as one of the foremost thinkers and activists of the anti-colonial revolution, leading movements in North America, Africa, and the Caribbean. Wherever he was, Rodney was a lightning rod for working-class Black Power organizing. His deportation sparked Jamaica’s Rodney Riots in 1968, and his scholarship trained a generation how to approach politics on an international scale. In 1980, shortly after founding the Working People’s Alliance in Guyana, the thirty-eight-year-old Rodney was assassinated.This class is presented by the Communist Workers League of Detroit.

Our government has failed to provide for working people during this pandemic–whether we are unemployed or underemployed, or working a frontline job.
Our own Senator Ron Johnson supported cutting the $600 federal supplemental unemployment benefits, saying it would be a disincentive to work- even when millions are out of work and jobs are few and far between. Senator Johnson thinks $600 a week in unemployment ($15/hr) is more than working families deserve, but is fine with millionaires and billionaires raking in money while we struggle to survive.We will join together to demand the unemployment support, hazard pay, and a living wage, so that our homes, our hunger, and our health are cared for as all working people deserve.

After a successful resident rally on September 24, Trestletree management/Monroe Group retaliated by banning the Housing Justice League, Parkside Equity Coalition and other non-tenant tenant organizers from the property. They also asked Kingdom Life Church to no longer serve the Trestletree neighborhood through their food pantry.
These are blatant violations of U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) policy, and Monroe Group will face consequences for their actions.
