I wonder if that strife has to do with that bakery there.

Hi Roger,
To the best of my understanding, there has been some strife at Oberlin
College where party functions were traditionally held. There may also
have been separate contract issues but I am only speculating about
that. I sure would love to be there but my work and personal
responsibilities will simply not allow it. I'm awfully glad to see
these confrences resuming, though. I nearly went to one that was
scheduled for last August but the party's focus switched to ballot
petitioning for candidates in several locales, including New Jersey
and D.C. where I was able to help out.
Be well and strong!

Hmmm. This is usually held in Oberlin, Ohio. I wonder why the change of
venue.
SWP to host Int’l Active Workers Conference in Ohio July 22-24

The Socialist Workers Party is hosting an International Active Workers
Conference at Wittenberg University in Springfield, Ohio, July 22-24. As
COVID restrictions are being lifted, this is the first time in nearly
two years the party has been able to host a gathering of this kind.
There will be talks by leaders of the Socialist Workers Party on key
questions facing working people today; classes on lessons from the
history of the labor and communist movement, and the example of the
Cuban Revolution; a panel presentation featuring SWP and Communist
League election candidates; and plenty of time for informal discussion
with conference participants and evening socials.
The conference takes place as the economy has picked up and more workers
are getting back to work. Some strikes and union-organizing drives have
broken out, an indication that growing numbers are looking for a way to
stand up to attacks by bosses as they seek to shift the burden of their
crisis onto the backs of workers and farmers. Plans will be made at the
conference for participants to join in campaigning teams and to bring
solidarity to striking workers.
If you are interested in being part of building a revolutionary
working-class party and would like to discuss attending the conference,
contact the SWP or the Communist League branch nearest you listed in the
directory.
