Full Description: 

Students of all kinds hold a unique and a common power with workers and opressed people , they are both workers and opressed people for the most part, as students they hold a specific power in the academic fatory that needs to be democratise and brought back to the people, as well as take part in worker and opressed people movements. From our experiance at HWC as the Socialist Club we have been able to stop the deportation of students and raise the concsiousness of people on campus and help politicize clubs that used to be a-political. In this workshop we will presents our experiances and open up a disscusion for what can we do as students and participants will give and take as much as the panelist, by the way in wich we will present and engage people.
