DESCRIPTION:Racism, police brutality and the economic crisis:\norganizing to fight 
 back\nAnita Gay rally, Berkeley, Calif., 08-23-2008The election of Barack 
 Obama as president of the United States was an occasion of historic 
 signiﬁcance. Obama’s victory was evidence of the achievements the Black 
 Liberation struggle has made in eroding white supremacy. When Obama became 
 the 44th president, however, racism did not magically fade away. In this 
 period of hard economic times, African American people continue to be 
 disproportionately the victims of high levels of unemployment, police 
 brutality and incarceration. But this is not new. The vast wealth of this 
 capitalist system was built off the suffering of Black people.\n\nFeatured 
 speaker, Eugene Puryear, 2008 PSL candidate for Vice President and Howard 
 University student, will speak about Obama, the economic crisis and the 
 struggle against racism. As part of commemorating Black History Month, we 
 will also recognize the often ignored but highly significant contributions 
 of African American people to science and technology.\n
