Kamala’s presidential bid has changed the political dynamics of the elections, big time I would say. Not sure if any of us have caught up with, what I consider, a political sea change. The anti-Trump coalition today is broader, deeper, and more energized than it was a week or so ago. And the challenge for all of us is to keep pace and BE A PART of this dynamic political process. This isn’t a time to cocoon ourselves off in our own spaces, apart from these broader electoral forms of organization and action. Join, Join, Join should be our mantra. And our aim, obviously, should be to elect Kamala and a Democratic majority in the House and Senate.

I'm a long-time socialist and activist, but new to the blogging world. I hope to bring a different perspective on politics, sports, culture, and Marxism. Besides blogging, I also leave plenty of time for swimming, hiking, ESPN, music, reading, drinking good beer, and, not least, my family and friends. I wish I could play basketball, but my knees ruled out that possibility long ago.
While I currently reside in New York, my politically formative years were spent in Portland, Me. and Detroit during the 1970s and 1980s. I graduated from St. Francis Xavier University in Nova Scotia (where I played basketball) and received a MA in economics from the University of Connecticut.
I was the national chairperson of the Communist Party, USA from 2000 until 2014 when I stepped down at the convention. In 2016 I resigned from the Communist Party two years later. We were no longer on the same page.
