All Human Life

The Communist University meets at 17h00 today in the Women’s Jail, 1 Kotze Street, Constitution Hill, to discuss Clara Zetkin’s 1920 interview with Lenin on the “Women’s Question”. Claire Bless will open the discussion. Next week’s session (on Friday, February 17th) will be at the same time and venue and will discuss Alexandra Kollontai’s “The Social Basis of the Woman Question”. Muff Andersson will open that discussion. See below. Today is also the day of the renaming of Harrow Road as Joe Slovo Drive. The invitation from the Office of the Executive Mayor says that a bus will depart from the Metropolitan Centre, Braamfontein, via Harrow Road, to Yeoville Recreation Centre. We presume this means there will be some sort of ceremony on the road itself, but we do not know exactly where that would be, or at what time. This event is organised by the municipality and not the SACP. For more details please phone Ms Rose Mabe at the Metro Council on 011 407 7214. There is also a call for a picket of the offices of NEDLAC at 14A Jellicoe Avenue, Rosebank this morning at 10h00 to protest at the visit of the overbearing, bullying, pro-Imperialist head of the WTO, Pascal Lamy. For more details phone SANGOCO on 011 403 7746. The Siyanqoba (“We Win!”) Rallies will be on Sunday, February 26th. The Johannesburg one will be at Orlando Stadium. We hope to sell the SACP’s paper “Umsebenzi” there in large numbers. COSATU’s releases on land reform and on labour laws have been included in one document, as have reports on two separate cases involving Comrade Jacob Zuma. See below, and also for an obituary for a well-known comrade, Vishwaprea Suparsad. Finally, Standard Bank is recruiting 200 matriculants. See below.
