In celebrating the anniversary of Capital’s publication, we encourage all workers and oppressed peoples to read the book for themselves so that they too will become familiar with Marx’s invaluable insights as they fight to create a better world.

[Angelo Herndon Club @GeorgiaCPUSA]

On this day in 1867, Karl Marx published the first volume of his magnum opus—Capital. Since its release, it has informed untold millions of workers and oppressed peoples around the world in their struggles against capitalism.

[Angelo Herndon Club @GeorgiaCPUSA]

In Capital, Marx's primary goal was to break down the “laws of motion” which determine the origins, the rise, the development, the decline, and the eventual end of capitalism as a social system.

Leslie creates prints that show the community that labor organizing creates for so many everyday workers. They highlight struggles such as striking Georgia bus drivers and Richard Husinger, a tenant organizer jailed during the George Floyd uprising in their artwork.

The Angelo Herndon Club recently hosted an art gallery at The Bakery, titled ONLY US: A STOP COP CITY AND LABOR ART SHOW

The club worked with local artists to bridge the gap between the movement to #StopCopCity and the broader labor movement

5. Elijah - IG: @elijahuntitled
Elijah's piece titled "Trickle Down" shows the true nature of the modern day worker's dilemma. Elijah shows the way in which many workers find themselves detached not only from their own work, but from the benefits of that work itself.

🚨 ALL EYES ON ATLANTA 🚨

The struggle for abolition continues as comrades in Atlanta have been fighting to determine the future of their city over the corporations, private donors, and elected officials that are unaccountable to the communities they’re supposed to serve. (1/3)

● Collective bail funds have existed since the dawn of the civil rights movement. When Dr. King was held in Birmingham Jail, churches and community groups including the NAACP came together to fund his $4000 bail - the equivalent of $39,000 today.

ASF works alongside lawyers to provide legal representation to those who need support navigating the complex legal system that is oftentimes pitted against them.

[Atlanta Community Press Collective @atlanta_press]

ASF provides jail support to ensure those in police custody have their rights protected and intact during the legal process. The group also provides cash bail assistance to those who are unable to pay the unconscionable bonds set by the courts.

This morning, APD raided The Teardown House and arrested three organizers with @ATLSolFund.

The Solidarity Fund provides legal defense and bail support for first amendment protected activities in Atlanta and the surrounding area.

Happy birthday to labor leader and CPUSA member Angelo Herndon!
Born in Wyoming, Ohio in 1913, Angelo left his home at the age of 14 to find work in the mines of Kentucky. Later, he traveled to Alabama and began working for the Tennessee Coal, Iron, and Railroad Company.

Charged with attempting to incite an insurrection, he spent the next 5 years fighting for his freedom. His case traveled through Georgia's judicial system twice before appearing in front of the U.S Supreme Court, which finally granted his freedom in April of 1937.
