Word of the Left

Insomniac commentary on current issues and Marxist theory with a Maoist spin.


Hiatus

Its been a long time since my last post, mainly because I've decided that I will shut down this blog indefinatly. I have became alot more active in the Communist movement lately, and have found that blogging has become alot harder as I work on new initiatives like neighborhood Revolution clubs, a American Fashwatch, and activism in general. I will still read alot of the great blogs on the web like Renedgade Eye, The Red Mantis, Portland Maoist, Red Flags, Left Spot, Che Bob's blog, Seek the Truth, Serve the People, and troutsky's blog however my posting will be limited now.

Until Later, LeftyHenry

March 17 -- March on the Pentagon!


March 17 marks two important events in history. The first is tragic; the 4th anniversary start of the Iraq war. The longest war in US history after Vietnam and the Civil War in which over 650,000 Iraqis would lose their lives thus far and 3000 American soldiers would lose theirs. The second event is not tragic. It is an example of what the people can do when they take history into their hands. 40 years ago on March 17th, the largest anti-war protest in US history occured transforming the opposition to a war not unsimiliar to the one the US is currently in, from a large but underground movement to a very large, very influential popular opposition to a system in decay. On March 17th 2007, hundreds of thousands of people will FORCE history to repeat itself. Join a wide range of anti-war coalitions on marching on the pentagon in opposition of the War in Iraq, and the criminal system of imperialism.
