DESCRIPTION:Confronting Today's Crises:\nThe Marxist-Humanist return to Marx and the 
 revolutionary abolition of capitalism\n\nAs we endure the worst world 
 economic crisis since the Great Depression, the need for an alternative to 
 capitalism is increasingly urgent. Capitalism's destructiveness is seen in 
 unemployment, economic uncertainty, the world food crisis, endless wars, 
 ever-growing prison populations and police repression, resurgent racism, 
 anti-immigrant hysteria, homophobia and sexism, and the havoc wrought by 
 global warming. Obama's election alone cannot solve these problems. People 
 across the world are looking for a change—for a new human society, a 
 humanist socialism that doesn't settle for state-capitalism.\n\nCan this be 
 achieved by state initiatives without a social—not just 
 political—revolution? Can revolutions of the 21st century avoid 
 transformation into one more form of state-capitalist totalitarianism? Can 
 revolution unite with a philosophy of total human liberation, of Marx's 
 revolution in permanence?\n\nThe Bay Area News and Letters classes will be 
 on five consecutive Sundays, beginning February 15 and ending on March 15. 
 Each will start at 6:30 p.m. at:\n\nNiebyl-Proctor Marxist Library\n6501 
 Telegraph Ave., Oakland, Ca.\nFor information call 510 658-1448, reply to
