The PSL hosts regular meetings and marxism classes in Chicago. We are involved in all the struggles of the day. Join us in study, organizing and fighting for a better world! Friday, July 7 PROTEST U.S.-BACKED ISRAELI TERROR IN GAZA 2–5 p.m. Responding to the recent Israeli military incursion in Gaza and humanitarian crisis resulting from aid cuts to the Palestinian people, Muslim American Society Freedom Foundation, A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition, and National Council of Arab Americans call upon all people of conscience to join a protest demanding "Justice for Palestine!" in Los Angeles this Friday afternoon. The protest is being organized, along with similar protests throughout the country, to heighten American public awareness of the political and humanitarian plight of the Palestinian people and the need for justice and peace in the region. Protest initiated by Muslim American Society Freedom Foundation; A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition, including member groups Free Palestine Alliance and Palestinian American Women's Association; and National Council of Arab Americans. Endorsed by Council on American-Islamic Relations, Muslim Public Affairs Council, Islamic Circle of North America, and Shura Council of Southern California. Friday, July 7 PSL FORUM ON PALESTINE: BEHIND THE CRISIS 7:30 pm Join the A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition and member group Party for Socialism and Liberation as we discuss the crisis in Palestine caused by the recent Israeli invasion of Gaza. The Palestinian population of Gaza, one of the poorest and most densely populated areas of the world, was already suffering severe shortages of food, medicine and other necessities due to Israel's blockade of Gaza and the cut-off of international aid to the West Bank and Gaza, in effect since January 2006. The new Israeli assault has resulted in the cut-off of power, water and food supplies to most of the people in Gaza. The situation constitutes a deliberately created humanitarian disaster, and now the U.S.-backed Israeli government is "intensifying" its brutal assault on the Palestinians. Hear an anti-imperialist analysis of the situation in Palestine and discuss the role Israel plays in forwarding U.S. domination in the region. There will be speakers, political discussion and refreshments. Featuring:

Minutemen members and supporters will be marching through Hollywood that day in a so-called "United States of America March." They claim to be celebrating the people of the United States, including "legal immigrants," but their underlying racism against all immigrants is unmistakable. This is the culmination of a week of anti-immigrant actions by the Minutemen. They are marching in July 4 parades in Pacific Palisades and Lake Forest before their march in Hollywood. Join us this Saturday to expose them as the racists they really are. These groups are directly aligned with white supremacist and Nazi organizations. Their rallies only target Latino immigrants. They praise "the rule of law" while completely ignoring the underlying causes for migration—imperialist wars and racist U.S. economic policies. The PSL and many others will gather at the corner of Hollywood and Argyle to protest the racist Minutemen and say "No Human Being is Illegal!" We will also pass out informational flyers urging people to join the counter protest and oppose anti-immigrant racism and bigotry. Bring banners and signs to show your support for immigrant rights. Now is the time for everyone to stand up for full equality, legalization and amnesty for undocumented workers. No to racism and the Minutemen! No to a guest worker program! The struggle for justice has no borders!

Join us for a discussion about the Chinese people's struggle for national liberation and socialism, which is the foundation for today's developments. PSL Marxism Classes & Study Groups In addition to our activism, PSL holds Marxism classes and study groups throughout the Bay Area.

IMPEACH BUSH! 1 p.m. Gather at Monte Rio What is Bohemian Grove? Bohemian Grove—a male only club—is a convergence of many of the world’s most dangerous and destructive men, from Cheney, Rumsfeld, Bush Jr.and Bush Sr. to the Bechtels, Henry Kissinger, much of the Hoover Institute board, and the CEOs of such Fortune 500 giants as Dupont, Weyerhauser, PG&E, and Bank of America. It was at Bohemian Grove in 1942 that the atomic bomb Manhattan Project was planned. Bohemian Grove has served as a key venue where the rich and powerful build consensus upon the policies they will inflict on the people and our environment. Join us!

End the 47-year war and blockade against Cuba 11:00 a.m. Gather and March from the U.S. Justice Department to the White House Featuring:
Washington, D.C., will be the scene of an important day of action to highlight the ongoing struggle for justice against U.S.-sponsored terrorism in Cuba and Latin America. Thirty years after the car-bombing assassination of Orlando Letelier (former Chilean Foreign Affairs Minister under Salvador Allende) and U.S. activist Ronnie Moffit on Washington’s Embassy Row, and 30 years after the mid-air bombing of the Cubana plane that killed 73 people—both crimes perpetrated by U.S.-backed terrorists—justice for the victims of terrorism is still out of reach. Successive U.S. administrations, directly responsible for training and arming the assassins Luis Posada Carriles and Orlando Bosch, have done everything to cover up the U.S. role in these deadly terrorist attacks. Washington’s policy is even more egregious by the wrongful imprisonment of five Cuban anti-terrorists since their FBI arrest eight years ago, on Sept. 12, 1998. The ”crime” of the Cuban Five was working to stop terrorist attacks on their country by right-wing paramilitary groups based in south Florida. The U.S. government harbors terrorists while prosecuting and imprisoning the Cuban Five anti- terrorists—Gerardo Hernández, Ramón Labañino, Antonio Guerrero, Fernando González and René González. Sept. 23 is part of the worldwide Days of Action from Sept. 12–Oct. 6. The Washington, D.C., event is sponsored by the National Committee to Free the Cuban Five, the National Lawyers Guild, the Alianza Martiana, and the National Network on Cuba. Organizations and individuals are urged to join this important effort. Contact the National Committee to Free the Cuban Five at: 415-821-6545, or email: freethefive@freethefive.org To endorse the march, click here to send an email to the Committee, and include details about the name of your organization and contact information.
