*****PLEASE CIRCULATE WIDELY*****

You are invited to attend a
NATIONAL FIGHTBACK CONFERENCE
Sponsored by Workers World Party
November 13-14, New York City

This year we have seen huge mobilizations for immigrant 
rights, women's rights, against war and occupation, and 
most recently the splendid Million Worker March that 
addressed many of these issues as well as workers' rights.

After the elections--no matter who wins--there needs to be 
a serious discussion about how to move the struggle 
forward. And that is exactly what hundreds of activists 
will be doing in New York City over the weekend of 
November 13-14 at a National Fightback Conference 
sponsored by Workers World Party.

You are invited to participate in this timely and urgently 
needed discussion. The Fightback Conference is open to all 
who really want to end war, bring the troops home, fight 
for workers' rights, and build a movement against 
capitalism and racism.

The conference will be held at a public school located in 
Manhattan at 281 9th Ave. & West 27 St. The conference 
schedule is Sat., Nov. 13, 10 am-7 pm, Sun., Nov. 14, 10 
am-3:30 pm. Registration starts at 9 am on both days.

Many people coming from around the country are new to the 
socialist movement, while others are activists 
representing a wide variety of struggles. The speakers and 
workshop facilitators will represent struggles involving 
labor, immigrants, youth, disabled people, prisoners, 
communities of color, women, lesbian/gay/bi/trans, and 
national liberation movements, as well as struggles for 
socialism and against imperialism, repression and war.

Conference participants will discuss the meaning of the 
election results and map out strategies for the struggles 
ahead against capitalism's war on workers and oppressed 
people here and around the world. A brochure that lists 
many of the topics that will be taken up at the conference 
can be downloaded at http://www.workers.org/pdf/WWConf.pdf

NATIONAL YOUTH ORGANIZING MEETING. Revolutionary youth in 
F.I.S.T.--Fight Imperialism, Stand Together--are inviting 
young activists to a national organizing meeting during 
the conference to discuss fighting military recruiting and 
the draft, youth in the struggle against racism and 
repression, and much more. For information about this
