Midwestern Marx Institute for Marxist Theory & Political Analysis.

Tonight's stream will consist of 3 discussions. The first with Jesus Rodriguez of Orinoco Tribune, who will walk us through the history of the Essequibo dispute and the contemporary situation. The second with the Institute's labor specialist, Kyle Pettis, who will discuss the UAW agreements with the big-3 and the upcoming push to organize nonunion workers. And the last segment with Professor Danny Shaw, who will walk us through the state-sanctioned murder of Fred Hampton, and who will discuss the contemporary relevance of his revolutionary teachings.
