Join the Indianapolis branch of the Party for Socialism and Liberation for an afternoon of discussions about the origins and aims of right-wing attacks on transgender student athletes in public schools and universities.
For this month’s liberation flick, we’ll be screening Stanley Nelson’s The Black Panthers: Vanguard of the Revolution, “the first feature-length documentary to explore the Black Panther Party, its significance to the broader American culture, its cultural and political awakening for black people, and the painful lessons wrought when a movement derails.” Learn more about the documentary at the PBS
The ACLU of Indiana has called for a mass demonstration at the south atrium of the Indiana Statehouse at 8am, and the PSL will be there to support the people as they fight back against the enshrinement of transphobic policy in the education system. Demand that Indiana public schools reaffirm its role as a service for ALL people, regardless of gender identity!
Join us on January 21 for a speakout to help build a movement to ensure that the Near Eastside–and all of Indianapolis–is made to fit the needs of the people, not profit!
We here also have the ability to help our fellow people! We can help by providing each other with mutual aid separate from the government that neglects us. We can overcome the barriers of capitalism and make sure our needs always come before profit. Come learn about what it means to do mutual aid and how it builds the movement for Socialism and against COVID!
Although SB 167 has been pulled, a grave threat remains to Indiana schools, students and teachers alike. House Bill 1134, which passed out of the education committee with a “do pass” recommendation, is functionally identical to SB 167.

Its passage would cause a massive worker exodus from a sector already suffering heavily from worker shortages, a death knell for public education.
Our first Liberation Flicks of 2022 intervenes in the nascent right-wing assault on public education in Indiana.
In 2021, the struggle for working and oppressed peoples’ power continued to develop and respond to the changing terrain.
