Selma James, women’s rights and anti-racist activist, author and international coordinator of the Global Women’s Strike, is returning to the SF Bay Area December 2st and 3rd.  Called “one of the key political thinkers and activists of our times,” Selma’s work has addressed the power relations within the working class movement, and organizing across sectors despite divisions of sex, race, age, etc., South and North.  Building on her well-received tour last spring on the publication of her book Sex, Race and Class, The Perspective of Winning -- A Selection of Writings, 1952-2011, Selma’s visit here is part of a tour in the US and Canada to help build the grassroots movement for change and launch the campaign to eliminate child poverty and value care giving.  More to follow soon…
