Obama & the Left: Different Perspectives on Social Change Today

Haymarket Books and In These Times are proud to co-sponsor “Obama & the Left: Different Perspectives on Social Change Today,” a panel event featuring four prominent progressive activists and authors. A $5 donation is suggested, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds. Speakers will include:

James Thindwa, executive director of Jobs with Justice-Chicago and a member of In These Times’ board of directors.

Sharon Smith, author of Subterranean Fire: A History of Working Class Radicalism In the U.S. and Women and Socialism: Essays on Women’s Liberation.

John Nichols, Washington correspondent of The Nation magazine.

Paul Street, an independent journalist and historian. Street is the author of four books to date, including Racial Oppression in the Global Metropolis: a Living Black Chicago History and Barack Obama and the Future of American Politics.
