Socialism 2010
Ideas for Changing the World
Revolutionary politics, debate and entertainment
June 17-20, Chicago
July 1-4, Oakland
http://www.socialis mconference. org

With the economy in shambles and with wars and occupations continuing, the challenge to
change these conditions confronts us all. More than a year ago, millions placed their hopes in
Barack Obama and the Democrats to solve these problems. But after months of broken
promises and concessions to conservatives, jobs are scarce, the banks are unregulated, and full
equality for LGBT people remains elusive.

Socialism 2010—to be held in both Chicago and Oakland—will provide an unparalleled
opportunity for new and veteran activists and scholars to explore questions about how we got
into this mess and how we can get out of it.

Last year, more than 1,800 people turned out to explore the history of struggles of ordinary
people, to learn about radical figures who led social movements and to debate theoretical
questions that can help us change the world.

Join us for more than 100 talks on issues such as: What is the Real Marxist Tradition?, Race in
the Obama Era, Capitalism, Climate Change, and the Future of Humanity, Abortion and
Women’s Liberation, and Building a New Left in the Obama Era.

Don’t miss the chance to meet, talk and socialize with hundreds of others like you who want to
build an alternative to a system of greed, racism, war and oppression.

GILBERT ACHCAR, author, The Arabs and the Holocaust; TARIQ ALI, writer, filmmaker and an
editor of New Left Review; ANTHONY ARNOVE, co-producer with the late Howard Zinn of “The
People Speak”; PAUL D’AMATO, author, The Meaning of Marxism; MIKE DAVIS, historian and
