Hello there,

On Saturday October 23rd, we are hosting a comprehensive event that we call a "day school"--three engaging talks by three active members of the ISO, all under the heading "Socialism In Our Time," and it'd be great if you could make it out!

The lecture-and-discussion-style event will take place from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the Frick Fine Arts Building, which is just below Schenley Plaza and caddy-corner to the Carnegie Museum and Library.  Come whenever you can, and stay as long as you're able!  We'll have pizza delivered for lunch at noon, and all of our literature to peruse and purchase will be on hand.  The following is our schedule for the day:

10:30 a.m.  Ashley Smith will speak on "The Revolutionary Ideas of Karl Marx"

1:00 p.m.  Sherry Wolf will speak on "Overcoming Divisions in the Working Class"

2:45 p.m.  Paul Le Blanc will speak on "Marxist Perspectives on Revolutionary Organization"

Alan Maass, ISO member and author of The Case for Socialism, has written an excellent piece called "Marx's theory of working-class revolution," which plays perfectly into the other day school events, just like ours on the 23rd, that are being hosted all over the country.  Read it here:
