In addition to inviting you to join in on a profoundly inspiring educational opportunity, I reflect on what I think have been some some pretty major weaknesses in Mass Struggle.
Join the Revolutionary Marxist Students comrades for a summer study, totally online (except where in-person is available!). Facilitators from all schools and chapters will be leading up this 6-week course. This study is not just for students, but is for workers too! Contact RMS as soon as possible at RMSNC@disroot.org.

Labor Militants: the Trade Union Educational League (TUEL)
[Repost from Revolutionary Left Radio] - This episode aims to serve as an introduction to the Trade Union Educational League (TUEL) which was the vehicle through which the communists in the U.S. from 1920-1935 aimed to base themselves amongst the proletariat and transform the labor movement into, as Marx said, an "organizing centre of the working class for its broad interest of complete emancipation." We focus particularly on the TUEL's activity from 1920-1929.
Topics discussed are the need for revolutionary theory for a revolutionary movement, the role of the industrial proletariat in a proletarian socialist struggle, the shortcomings of William Z. Foster's prior two syndicalist leagues that operated from 1912-1917, and the work of TUEL militants in the mining, needle trades, and textile industries.

Vote No: UPS Struggle and Marxist Labor Organizing
Former Revolutionary Marxist Students, Audrey and Lenni, discuss their recent article (https://cosmonautmag.com/2023/08/the-ups-struggle-and-the-tasks-of-marxists-in-the-labor-movement/) on the Teamsters Mobilize Vote No campaign, the ways in which the Tentative Agreement and the Teamsters for a Democratic Union leadership betrays UPS workers and the entire working class, how opportunists misguide the workers in their struggle against their oppressors, and what the tasks of Marxist in the labor movement are today.
