Soclalist Resistance public meetings can be a real success, as the recent mini-tour on The Middle East and the Project for the Now American Century demonstrates.
Lebanese soclalist Gilbert Achcar spoke at three forums In London, Oxford and BIrmingham to audiences old and now.
Questions and contributons from the audlences were wide and varled, from Ubya and what's going on In Syrla, to what really Is the "projact in the Middie East.
Many young people attended, mainly students, but some young workers wo'd worked with in Stop the War, Iraql Occupation Focus and Respect came to the meetings.
These were also the most multi-ractal meetings we have organised to date, which is a reflection of the lovel of agreement amongst activists, whether they describe themselves as soclalist or not, on køy Issues such as the connection between war, neoliberalism and racism.
