Sunday Morning at the Marxist Library
China's Migrant Workers History and Challenges Over the past 30 years, around 300 million men and women have moved from China's farms to its factories, industrial plants and construction sites, in one of the largest and most rapid migrations in human history. Luo Xiaoping, a daughter of farmers, graduated from the Academy of Marxism of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. Her presentation will review this migration, some of the extraordinary challenges that have accompanied it, and efforts to address them. Luo Xiaoping is an assistant professor at Zhejiang Ocean University and a visiting scholar at Boston University this year. Sunday, April 5, 2015 - 10:30 am to 12:30 pm 6501 Telegraph Avenue, Oakland (just North of Alcatraz Ave.) Seating is limited, so plan to come early. We start promptly. FREE - but hat will be passed for donations to NPML About Sunday Morning at the Marxist Library A weekly discussion series inspired by our respect for the work of Karl Marx and our belief that his work will remain as important for the class struggles of the future as they have been for the past.
