What does imperialism look like today - and how should socialists respond?

Join Madison Area DSA for a panel discussion exploring the history and present reality of imperialism, from its roots in global capitalism to its ongoing role in shaping world politics. We’ll examine the long tradition of socialist anti-imperialism and discuss current events such as U.S. intervention in countries like Iran.

Panelists will also explore the relationship between labor and empire. Finally, we’ll turn to strategy - discussing what it means to organize against imperialism today and what actions socialists can take inside the imperial core to challenge war, exploitation, and domination abroad.

Whether you’re new to these ideas or looking to deepen your understanding, this conversation will connect theory, history, and the urgent questions of our political moment.

Come ready to listen, learn, and discuss.
