Join our Political Education Committee for Poetry in the Park!

Each meeting we will discuss a few poems from a socialist poet or poets as a means to inspire and deepen our understanding of working class politics. Facilitators will help put the poems in historical context and we'll work together to develop an understanding of how the art expresses something about the world around us. 

Develop new fascinations, explore your creativity, and talk with other like-minded socialists about how art and politics are meaningful avenues to combat our alienation under capitalism.
