???Militant??? reporters head to Puerto Rico
Vol. 83/No. 31
August 26, 2019
Alyson Kennedy, the Socialist Workers Party candidate for U.S. president
in 2016; Seth Galinsky, the SWP candidate for New York City public
advocate; and Linda Joyce from Atlanta are heading to Puerto Rico Aug.
15 for five days to bring solidarity, report the truth in the Militant
about the conditions working people face there and to learn about the
fight that forced the resignation of Gov. Ricardo Rossell??.
They will talk to working people in San Juan as well as smaller towns
like Humacao, Yabucoa and Naguado, where residents organized to confront
the consequences of Hurricane Maria, which ravaged the island in 2016.
The delegation will bring their experience as participants in
working-class struggles in the U.S. And they will take part in
discussions on what is the road forward in the face of the crisis of
capitalist and colonial rule.
When they return they will speak at forums, house meetings and anywhere
they are invited, to explain why it is in the interests of workers of
all nationalities in the U.S. to support the fight against U.S. colonial
rule.
