"The dignity of labor is absolutely intrinsic to Northerners in a way that's very different from a slave society. That is an enormous foundation of working class politics in this country. You had to establish the fact that labor was something not to be sneered at." - Sean Wilentz

"...when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. ..."

[Eric Lee @EricLeeAtty]

"...whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles...as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety & Happiness."

No other political organization has put together such a panel to talk about the progressive and enduring legacy of the American Revolution. The pseudo-left would rather revel in their SpaceX stocks. The fight for quality is anathema to their middle class interests.

"Workers lose lives and limbs in these plants to make money for a class of people that do not care for their well-being... The biggest issue is to have the power of the people returned back to the shop floor." Martaz Crutchfield, a worker at Ford's Rouge plant

"We've got 280 dues paying members and they all showed up and showed out. We wanted to strike, we wanted to make an impact. We want more money. We need it! With this economy, we need it. And the [UAW] International wouldn't let us strike."

Rank-and-file workers are calling on their delegates to nominate me for UAW president at this week's Constitutional Convention. Listen to what they have to say.

The death of historian Gordon Wood 3 weeks before the 250th anniv. of the Declaration of Independence is a terrible tragedy. He kept the revolutionary fire burning & defended its legacy when NY Times 1619 Project attacked it from right wing identity politics standpoint. RIP!

Per NPR, Cornell President Michael Kotlikoff (who orchestrated suspension/attempted deportation of @MomodouTaal) reportedly hit a pro-Palestinian student with a car, then Cornell banned the student from campus for "restrict[ing]" the car's "ability to maneuver."

[David North @DavidNorthWSWS]

The radicalism of the youth of the 1960 was not "drug inspired." It was a response to Vietnam, the struggle for civil rights, and, even more fundamentally, the fresh and not-forgotten horrors of the two World Wars. The 1917 October Revolution had not disappeared from memory, capitalism and anti-communism were in bad odor, Stalinism was increasingly discredited, and there was a revival of interest in Trotsky, whose extraordinary books were recognized as political and literary masterworks. This resurgence was suppressed by the reactionary political climate of the Reagan-Thatcher years to which Mr. Luce was exposed, to his own misfortune, during his intellectually formative years.

But Mr. Luce correctly detects a process of radicalization among the world's youth. The question is, at what point will this radicalization break beyond the bounds of the media-vetted pseudo-leftism of people like Sanders and Mamdani and reestablish contact with the the genuine Marxian-socialist political perspective and culture that was exemplified in the October Revolution and figures like Lenin, Trotsky and Luxemburg. This break must and will occur, and the rediscovery of Trotsky's extraordinary political legacy and writings will be a critical element of the reemergence of Marxism as a mass socialist movement based on the working class.

The World Socialist Web Site has posted today a preface I have written to a new edition of Trotsky's autobiography, My Life. It can be accessed at https://t.co/79dx4RaCkC
