A team of three from Willamette Reds presented an historical review of American economic history from the perspective of socialism at Occupy Salem during the regular education session Oct. 24.
In the gathering dusk and cold, an engaged group heard about the socialist tradition in the US, an analysis of what led to the current crisis, comments on a few key persons (Eugene Debs, Henry Ford, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Ronald Reagan) and socialist philosophy and solutions to various facets of the current economic and political situation.
This was the first in a series of educational presentations by Willamette Reds. If you would like to book a presentation for your group or class, please contact us via rjrossi (at) q.com.

This is a terrific picture! I wish I could have been there and learned something from you folks. Thanks for doing this.
I keep waiting for someone to ask about the remarkable structure behind our folks. I believe it's a fountain presented by the WCTU back when. No longer a fountain!
