According to the SoCal YCL’s website the “Schools” will include:
“lively classes and discussions: Marxism and the Political Moment: Building the movement for change; The Crisis of Capitalism Today: Causes of Crisis and the Class Struggle; Working Class and the Labor Movement; Racism, Immigrant Rights, women’s rights, LGTB rights and the struggle for equality; The CPUSA and YCL, envisioning Bill of Rights Socialism and how to get there. Also plenty of cultural, social and recreational activities.”

I'd urge most CD PnCers to go when the van stops in their city, since most CD PnCers are absolutely ignorant as to what communism is.

I actually said there is much to learn. Knowledge is the opposite of ignorance.

It is the land of the free. They're not getting arrested for spewing the form of government that killed 100 million people last century. Fortunately, people are free to ridicule their socialist religion also.

Phew!!! For a moment I was reminded of this...

Quote:
"The streets of our country are in turmoil. The universities are filled with students rebelling and rioting. Communists are seeking to destroy our country. Russia is threatening us with her might, and the Republic is in danger. Yes - danger from within and without. We need law and order! Without it our nation cannot survive."
A rhetoric, a propaganda like THAT can NEVER happen in our country.

Last time I checked Mao and Stalin weren't fans of the working class, women's rights, or GLBT rights.
