 http://leftturn.org --- Left Turn is a national network of activists engaged 
in exposing and fighting the consequences of global capitalism and imperialism. 
Rooted in a variety of social movements, we are anticapitalists, radical 
feminists, anti-racists, and anti-imperialists working to build resistance and 
alternatives to corporate power and empire.[image: Argentina]

Through our publication, Left Turn Magazine, our website and other forums,
we seek to create spaces for our various movements to reflect and
strategize. The magazine serves as a resource to grassroots movements by
reporting on and analyzing local and global struggles for justice. It is
an all volunteer publication written by activists for activists.

We are committed to modelling the world we want to see by organizing
collectively, democratically and without hierarchy, both internally and in
the larger movement. Whether working on a local community campaign or
doing international solidarity work, we seek to fight all forms of
oppression through our organizing.

We recognize the importance of struggles waged by people and communities
most affected by the policies of globalization and empire, whether in
Brooklyn or Baghdad. Through each aspect of our work we highlight these
struggles and forge connections between them in order to build a stronger
more effective movement here in the heart of the empire.

Finally, we wish to project politics of hope, inspiration and solidarity
based on both the rich history of social movements and the visionary work
of everyday people coming together to radically transform society and
bring about a more just world.
