On the night of August 20th, while Barack Obama gave remarks on the second night of the DNC, Workers Strike Back hosted a rally at Grace Church in the Logan Square neighborhood of Chicago around the slogan “Disrupt the DNC.” More than 200 working-class people from across the country gathered in-person, and more than 150,000 tuned in online to discuss a way forward for the antiwar movement and a strategy for the working class heading into November and beyond.
How Can We End the War on Gaza?
◊ End the genocidal war on Gaza, the occupation, and all U.S. military aid to the Israeli state!
◊ Fully fund Medicare for All including gender-affirming care & abortion, and massively invest in high quality affordable housing for working people!
◊ Unions should call for a national one-day strike and walk-out of students and workers and build for a mass nationally coordinated protest against the genocide!
◊ No to Harris and Trump - build for the largest possible vote for Left antiwar pro-worker candidate Jill Stein, as a step towards a new antiwar party for the working class!
