This week we discuss the importance of political education, with suggested readings for your personal socialist literacy, and talk with three guests from North Brooklyn's political education committee who just finished their inaugural year of Brooklyn Socialist Night School.
EXCLUSIVE WEB-ONLY EPISODE! Fascism is not abstract and neither is anti-fascism. Contrary to what Senator Ted Cruz and his reactionary colleagues would have us believe, anti-fascism is not domestic terrorism but a set of tactics and activities designed to prevent the rise of white supremacist, anti-Semitic, and xenophobic hate and violence. Join us on RPM to hear from anti-fascist organizers from NYC-DSA and Outlive Them NYC, a group of anti-fascist Jews and allies. What is fascism? What is anti-fascism? And how can you get involved?
ICE’s reign of terror is tearing families apart as concentration camps of asylum seekers proliferate along the border. Trump has intensified the war on immigrants, but state violence directed against the workers of the world is a deeply rooted tradition of the American ruling class. Today we’re joined by Marvin Gonzalez, Elijah Stevens, and Britt Stern from the Immigrant Justice Working Group to discuss the collective struggle against the deportation apparatus and how we organize for the socialist horizon of a world with no borders.

Every two years we have a national convention to decide important questions about the direction of our organization and vote for our sixteen-member National Political Committee, who serve as our nationwide leadership.
Last weekend our special correspondent Michael Carter was down in Atlanta with our 1,056 delegates from around the country met to democratically decide these questions and meet their comrades from throughout the country and the world.
Michael: In this episode, we hear from organizers and activists around the country as well as from members of the NYC-DSA delegation to the convention about their experience and about what it means to run an organization democratically.
We have on-the-ground interviews with elected socialists Maryland House Rep Gabriel Acevero, Chicago City Council Member Byron Sigcho-Lopez, Peekskill City Councilwoman Vanessa Agudelo, North Dakota state legislator Ruth Buffalo, Oregon school board member Brandy Fortsen, who is the first nonbinary person elected to public office in the United States, and several delegates to the convention.
We also spoke with delegates organizing for socialism in other spheres of struggle. We’ll share with you their experience participating in organizational democracy in order to build a multi-racial workers’ democracy across the world.
Last but definitely not least, we will be hearing from newly elected National Political Committee member Tawny Tidwell.
