Left Forum 2005
New York City, April 15–17, 2005
As many supporters of the Socialist Scholars Conference know, 7 of the 16 members of that conference's Board of Directors resigned last spring in protest of the lack of democratic and participatory governance procedures.
Nevertheless, we value the two decades-old tradition of the Socialist Scholars Conference and wish the remaining board members well. However, in response to numerous requests from individuals and organizations, we ourselves have decided to sponsor an event, a conference to be held at the CUNY Graduate Center on the weekend of April 15-17, and we are asking you and others to participate with us in this conference.Our conference will aim to address both theoretical and organizing issues on the left. We want especially to feature discussion of the concerns of movement activists. Our aim is a lively, concise, and intellectually challenging conference that will maintain the continuity of left intellectual traditions. At the same time, we want to organize a conference oriented to the problems confronting anti-imperialist and social justice movements, here and abroad.
Confirmed speakers include Tariq Ali, Barbara Ransby, David Harvey, Ralph Nader, Bill Fletcher. Jr., Ellen Meiksins Wood, Manning Marable, Peter Gowan, Michael Klare, Barbara Ehrenreich
The coming year may well be decisive for the tradition of left gatherings in New York City. We want to preserve and expand that tradition, adding to its political diversity. We need your solidarity and support now. Donations of any amount are welcome, but gifts of $100 or more to Global Left Dialogue will entitle you to free admission to the Conference.
