Why you should join the AWL
In Britain today, one child in three grows up in poverty, in a household with less than half the average income. In 1968, the figure was only one in 10.

Hull Workers' Liberty - Is this as good as it gets? - The Case for Class Struggle Feminism
Submitted on
Date:
18 October, 2011 - 20:00
Location:
Wilberforce Building Lecture Room 31, University of Hull
Description:
Women’s lot under capitalism is, for most, that of low-paid wage slavery, with the double burden of the bulk of the responsibility for childrearing, housework and caring being placed firmly on our shoulders; then there’s the enormous pressures of how we should look, behave and act. The chances of achieving any real freedoms or reaching our individual and collective potential is impossible under capitalism.
The lot of working class women is made even worse at times like these when capitalism is in crisis. It’s working class women who are hit hardest when jobs are cut and services slashed.
The case for class struggle feminism is the case for a distinct feminism based on smashing the oppression of the majority of women - working class women. The liberation of working class women is the liberation of humanity.
Class struggle feminists care little about glass ceilings that stop middle class women from becoming bosses and exploiting working class women and men. It's the class ceiling we’re out to smash!
All are welcome as we discuss how working class people can organise against sexual, gender and class oppression.
Tubeworker distribution day

Location:
Meet at King's Cross station, 1pm
Description:
Supporters of the rank-and-file Tubeworker bulletin will be meeting at Kings Cross at 12:00 on Sunday, to hand out the special strike edition of the bulletin to London Underground staff.
Tubeworker is an all-grades rank-and-file bulletin written by and for workers on the London Underground, and it aims to help build a democratic, fighting union for all workers on the Tube. Tubeworker was set up by Workers' Liberty and is available online at http://www.workersliberty.org/tubeworker
Please help us distribute the special strike edition of Tubeworker - and help build the strike.
After distributing the bulletin around a few stations there will be a discussion meeting at Liverpool Street tube to discuss the strike as well as some broader political issues, such as what attitude socialists should take to union elections (Workers' Liberty member and Tubeworker supporter Janine Booth is currently running for election to the RMT NEC).
You do not have to be a member or support of Workers' Liberty to help distribute the bulletin; anyone who believes in rank-and-file organisation and building strike solidarity is welcome. Come along - bring friends! For more information call 07961 040 618 or email Daniel at skillz_999@hotmail.com
