Critically acclaimed by both Howard Zinn and Michael Parenti, "Low-Wage Capitalism" provides a sorely-needed and easy-to-read analysis of the roots of the current global economic crisis, its implications for workers and oppressed peoples, and the strategy needed for future struggle. Goldstein explains how the dramatic impact of new technology and the restructuring of global capitalism contains the seeds of its own destruction.He will be joined by Monica Moorehead, the editor of Marxism, Reparations and the Black Freedom Struggle, a rich collection of articles from the pages of Workers World newspaper featuring Black Resistance, Katrina, History of Struggle and Anthology. Both authors will sign books following the discussion.For more info check out:http://www.lowwagecapitalism.com/http://leftbooks.com/store/product211.htmlhttp://internationalistbooks.org/?q=node/300(any more questions contact scott@fistyouth.org)Fight Imperialism- Stand Together (FIST) is a Marxist youth organization. http://raleighfist.wordpress.comhttp://fistyouth.org
