A BETTER WORLD IS STILL POSSIBLE

 As we approach the November election and think beyond it we see more and more charters and declarations. While we can create our own, our energies might be better served uniting with those who share our concerns and visions of the short-run and the longer period.

The first link is to a domestic People’s Charter, the second to a discussion of principles of peaceful coexistence and anti-militarism, and the third a video presentation of expressions of anti-imperialism from people on the left, mostly from the Global South.

We probably share the views of these statements. The big question is how to participate with others in achieving  changes of policy and more fundamental structural change.
