Four leaders of the youth group Fight Imperialism, Stand Together spoke at a joint forum sponsored by FIST and Workers World Party on Jan. 2 at the Solidarity Center in New York City.  The forum was entitled, “Smash the low-wage police state.” The main presentations were given by (from left to right), Nick Maniace on “Hollywood’s racist attack on the Korean revolution”; Ramiro Fúnez on “Wall Street’s school to prison pipeline”; Claudia Palacios on “A brief history of police in the United States”; and Caleb Maupin on “Low wages, police terror and the necessity of revolution.”

These four talks can be viewed at youtu.be/TzfU0XZWrOU, youtu.be/Sfb7HhHku8o, youtu.be/53E_nE24A7o and youtu.be/u3JPak_Jw1A.
