Heard nothing about these sessions until read Michael Roberts post yesterday. Am uncertain if able to make but would have liked to have heard about this and considered it. How was notice of sessions publicized?
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry that you hadn't heard about these classes. The publicity was available at some public libraries, bookstores, campuses, March for Women's Lives, UCLA Labor Center, Facebook and the Historical Materialism Listserv among other places. Hope you will be able to attend the class on May 28.
