"All negation is determination; all determination is negation." -- Karl Marx, draft of Vol. II of Capital

News and Letters' 2003-2004 Perspectives state: What distinguishes a Marxist-Humanist response to imperialist war and terrorism is not just that we oppose both sides of the conflict, but that we take responsibility for projecting a vision of a new society that transcends capitalism...Marx's humanism remains for us the measure of any effort to create a new society. Standing for a new society does not simply mean being for practical struggles for a new society once they arise. Standing for a new society also means theoretically discerning the elements for creating a new society before such struggles arise.

Topics include: Politics of Culture; Building Bridges Between Academics and Activists; Animal Ethics; Pedagogy of a Rebel; Being a Former ALF Member; Feminist Imperatives and the ALF; Human Rights and Animal Rights: Solidarity with the ALF; and more. Presented in panel and discussion form, each topic will be discussed and examined to produce academic dialogue that will advance the movement. Gourmet Cruelty will present Delicacy of Despair, documenting a liberation of ducks on a foie gras farm. And, concluding the conference, a benefit show will be held Sunday night that will showcase bands that support Animal Liberation performing cover songs.
