The U.S. military and the CIA protect and serve big business - as seen in recent wars to keep U.S. corporate control of the Panama Canal and oil in the Gulf. We demand drastic cuts in the military budget, an end to the inhuman and illegal U.S. blockade against Cuba. Fair trade, disarmament, global justice and working class unity are the best way to achieve peace. Youth and other oppressed people are not to blame. We know the unemployment crisis, education crisis, housing crisis, environmental crisis, racism, sexual abuse, drugs, violence, gambling, suicide, etc.
Capitalism is corrupt and it has got to be replaced.
Young people are fighting back. All over the country, young people have taken up the fightback against corporate greed and the ultra-right. Young organizers poured into the AFL-CIO's Union Summer program. High-schoolers were bold on the front lines fighting against California's racist Prop. 209 and 187. In Philadelphia, public school students stormed city hall demanding full funding for schools.
