Booklaunch: Out of the Impasse?

Friday, July 17 / 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm EDT

The Leo Panitch School is proud to present the launch of Out of the Impasse? Debating Class Politics and Canadian Unions. It represents the latest in the long running series of pamphlets published by the Socialist Project. It features four pieces of striking analysis, all drawing from Rosenfeld’s decades of experience as an autoworker, educator, and socialist activist.

“These interventions remind us that worker power depends not only on shop-floor solidarity, but on building a capacity for independent collective political action by unions and workers…”

All are invited to join as we celebrate this new entry into the debates on Canadian socialism and working class politics!

About the author: Herman Rosenfeld is a Toronto-based socialist activist, educator, organizer, and writer. He is originally from Newark, New Jersey, and came to Canada in 1972. He is a retired national staff person with the Canadian Auto Workers (now Unifor) and worked in their Education Department. Before, he worked for 15 years in a General Motors Assembly Plant in Scarborough, on the assembly line and as an elected union committeeperson.
