Baltimore Solidarity

reaucratic "business unionism." We are involved in solidarity with the people of Iraq and Afghanistan, Latin America, Palestine, and many other countries, where we fight against U.S. aggression and imperialism. We work for reproductive rights and other feminist demands. We fight for an ecologically balanced society. We support the struggles of gay, le***an, bisexual and transgender activists. We include activists of color and we work in solidarity with people of color organized independently fighting for dignity, power and self determination. In the movements, we try to build broad coalitions, organize the unorganized, activate the apathetic, develop ties between movements and strengthen the rank-and-file democracy. We argue against participation in the Democratic Party, which has been the graveyard of radical movements, and promote the idea of a new, independent political party. We see Solidarity as a contribution to a new U.S. left, one neither sectarian nor reformist. We advocate a new, creative politics with an attitude of openness and collaboration.
