DESCRIPTION:March 5 marks the 150th birthday of Rosa Luxemburg, one of the towering 
 revolutionary figures in history.\n\nLuxemburg played a leading role in the 
 Second International, and was the most important leader of the struggle 
 waged by the revolutionary Marxist faction of the German Social Democratic 
 Party (SPD) against Eduard Bernstein’s revisionism and the centrism of 
 Karl Kautsky. During World War I, she fought together with Karl Liebknecht 
 against the SPD’s war policy. Luxemburg played a critical role in the 
 founding of the anti-war Spartacus League and the Communist Party of 
 Germany. On January 15, 1919, she and Liebknecht were assassinated by 
 right-wing Freikorp soldiers at the behest of the SPD in the midst of 
 revolutionary struggles in Berlin.\n\nThis online event will examine 
 Luxemburg’s role as Marxist theoretician and political leader, and 
 discuss the significance of her immense historical legacy to the 
 contemporary struggle to build a Marxist leadership of the international 
 working class. \n\nSunday March 7\n10:00 AM US Pacific Time\n1:00 PM US
