DESCRIPTION:In an act of political censorship, Google is blocking Internet traffic to a 
 variety of socialist and left-wing websites, including the World Socialist 
 Web Site, Alternet, Wikileaks, Counterpunch, Truth-out, and Common Dreams. 
 Under the guise of combating “fake news,” this corporate giant is 
 collaborating with the US government and the Democratic Party to limit 
 access to political opinions that the ruling class deems 
 “incorrect.”\n\nGoogle’s censorship is part of broader moves to 
 control information on the Internet, involving Facebook, YouTube, Twitter 
 and other corporations. The ruling elite fears that the free flow of 
 information online will encourage the growth of opposition to war, 
 inequality and the attack on democratic rights.\n\nThis meeting is called 
 by the Socialist Equality Party, the International Youth and Students for 
 Social Equality, and the World Socialist Web Site, which is the censors’ 
 primary target. The meeting will present the facts about Google’s attack 
 on left-wing websites and lay out a plan for fighting censorship by placing 
 the Internet under democratic control.\n\nFor more information, read the 
 Open Letter to Google and sign the petition against censorship.\n\nTo read
