Society, as we know it, is divided into two classes, the ruling class and the working class. The ruling class own and control all the wealth in society. This wealth is created by the blood, sweat and tears of the working class. It is this inequality that underpins the system we live in. All of societies ills, war, racism, poverty, sexism, homophobia stem from this system and the need for the ruling class to maintain their control over the wealth in society.
Because of this inequality and suffering, resistance is inevitable. The system cannot escape it, no matter how much they try to curtail it with violence and attacks on civil liberties. The liberation from this system lies in the ability of the working class to realise their own power through their labour. It is through working class revolution that people can change the world!

One Afghan boy said, "…if I had stayed in Afghanistan of course
they would have killed me, maybe in an hour or two, but I ended up in here
so physically they are keeping me alive but emotionally and spiritually
they are killing me."
