Subject: Fwd: USA: NY Meeting On Quebec & Colombia - WWP


This is going to be one of the rare times that I forward something from
Workers World Party, but I want to use this message to make a point.
While we anarchists pat ourselves on our backs for having breached the
fence at Quebec City, our "comrades" on the Left are busy organizing
"reportbacks" on Quebec City. Yes, some of them went to Quebec City, but
we all know that the folks who put their necks on the line were our
anarchists. Not only did we risk jail time, including one who was facing
attempted murder charges, but we did alot of the groundwork for the
protests.

My question to all of you is: are we going to let the party Left use
Quebec City to build their agenda? Is our story going to be told through
their mouths to the new people who are interested in our movement? If
your answer is "no", I really hope that you have organized a local
reportback featuring anarchists.
