ILPS: A response to the Democratic and Republican national conventions

On Wednesday, Sept. 9, the U.S. chapter of the International League of Peoples’ Struggles (ILPS) as well as the U.S. chapter of the International Migrants’ Alliance (IMA) held a webinar titled “The U.S. vs. the People’s Platform: Building an Alternative to the Two-Party System.” As a response to both the Democratic and Republican national conventions, the ILPS and IMA exposed the rotten, corporate, anti-people character of both the Democrats and Republicans and presented their own People’s Platform and Migrants’ Agenda.
