Rage against Racism: Meetings and discussion at Marxism 2015
Events in the United States have shone a spotlight on the issue of police racism and violence.  
Racists and right wingers are trying to use the terrible killings in Paris to divide working people, justify imperialist intervention and whip up Islamophobia.  The attacks came as racists and fascists are on the offensive across Europe.
And in Britain politicians – and UKIP in particular – seek to profit from racism.

In just a few weeks on 21 March anti racists will take to the streets to show that there is opposition and an alternative to racism. For more details go to http://uaf.org.uk/2015/02/stand-up-to-racism-and-fascism-21-march-2015-2/

We need to rage against racism on the streets on 21 March in the run up to the General Election. We also need clear strategies for stopping the racists and fascists.

Marxism 2015 will be a place for such discussion. There will be a whole range of meetings including ones on
  • Malcolm X
  • Selma and the Civil Rights Movement
  • Police, racism and the state
  • Islamophobia
  • After Charlie Hebdo: Religion, racism and free speech

Wesley Weber � Canada�s Master Counterfeiter

Wesley Weber who was one of the world�s most famous counterfeiters (forging millions of bank notes) is arguably the first image that comes to mind when counterfeiting is being discussed. From the start, Wesley Weber�s goal was to live the good life�fast cars, beautiful women, lavish parties. But that took money, lots of it. He tried financing his dreams with a series of petty thefts, growing marijuana, and forgery until he was busted in 1997 and spent three months in jail. Two years later his marijuana operation netted 18 months of house arrest and 240 hours of community service. Weber needed a better way to subsidize his ambitions. Then it hit him. Why not print his own money? Putting Technology to Work Weber had always been a computer geek. As a kid, he�d tried duplicating Canadian 10s and 20s but decided doing it on a large scale wouldn�t be practical with the equipment he had. After several years of science and engineering classes, he thought it was worth another try. He scanned an...
