With the Olympics coming up this summer in China, and growing protests about China's clampdown in Tibet disrupting the carrying of the Olympic torch, this is a great opportunity to review how socialists analyze China:

Is China Communist?
Is it capitalist?
Will China supplant the US as the world's most powerful nation?

These are some of the questions we will discuss in our lead-off discussion.

We will also get updates on the important ILWU May Day protest against the war.

We will also review the last week's activities, and upcoming events and discuss any other items of interest.

This week we will examine the announcement of the ILWU that they will strike
on May 1 against the war, and the developing debate in the ILWU about this proposal.

A member of the union will give an introduction on the ILWU, the importance of May 1 for workers, and the proposed action for May 1.

Last week we discussed the WASL and are proposing to do a campaign on this during the coming months. More information about the WASL campaign will be available as it develops.

We will also review the last week's activities, upcoming events, and discuss any other items of interest.
