SPUSA History - Over 100 Years of Democratic Socialism

Next Wednesday, July 13th at 7pm the Tom Mooney Local of the Socialist Party will meet at the Bangs Center in downtown Amherst to discuss the history of the Socialist Party from 1901 to present. With the ongoing occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan in mind, we will focus in particular on socialist resistence to past US wars. Our discussion will start with the 100th Anniversary Flyer that the SPUSA produced in 2001. This meeting is handicap accessible and open to all.
