This presentation to a meeting of South African activists on 7th May was very well received. Our peak numbers were around 122 who attended via Zoom, plus about 1000 total views on the Facebook stream. Participants included the leader of the left labour federation SAFTU Zwelinzima Vavi, who said it was "brilliant", and many other labour leaders, union members and researchers, and a large number of young activists eager to deepen their knowledge and intervene. It is proposed to continue these discussions in a series of future exchanges, some of which will be broadly educational, others targeted on key issues such as strategies to mobilize state and SA financial resources to social need. Michael is providing links to his own material and that of others for the self-education of young comrades.
