Russell Prentice Hall Publication date: February 28, 1994 Race first became an issue in the class structuring of North American societies in 1521 when Tenochtitlan, the capital city of the Aztecs, fell to Spanish invaders. For the first time conquerors and conquered were racially different. After the end of the Aztec era--the fifth sun in Aztec thought--Spanish and later European colonizers built new societies in which they occupied the dominant class positions and forced Indians, Africans, and Asians into subordinate positions. The close association of class and race in North America thus began during the colonial past, but it developed in different ways in the areas that would become the United States, Mexico, and Canada. In this far-reach study, James W. Russell comparatively explores how patterns of class and racial inequality developed in the United States, Mexico, and Canada from the colonial pasts to the present. What is revealed is a continent of diverse historical experiences, class systems and ways of thinking about race. Contents: 1. Introduction 2. The Ending of the Fifth Sun 3.

INTRODUCTORY MESSAGES BELOW FROM CPUSA CHAIR GUS HALL AND PEOPLE'S WEEKLY WORLD EDITOR TIM WHEELER. ============================================================================== GUS HALL (Gus Hall can be reached on the Internet at timwheeler@igc.apc.org) February 24, 1994 Dear Friends, It won't be too long before writing a letter will become as obsolete and out-of-date as the pony express as a way of communicating. Such is the nature of the technological revolution in mass communications. Interactive communications is taking over. We are about to take the plunge into the cyberspace future. For quite some time we have been talking about how the Communist Party USA and our paper the People's Weekly World can join the millions already traveling on the electronic superhighway. Our country, the world is in the midst of a spectacular revolution in mass communications. Talking to people and winning them to the class struggle and socialism is at the heart of what we do. We're at the door of a wonderful, new way of communicating our ideology to masses. Last week the People's Weekly World carried a letter to readers, "A People's March on the Electronic Superhighway" describing our plans for taking that daring plunge into the future (see letter below). Yes, its true, we have computerized and kept up with the state-of-the-art in the layout, production and printing of our paper. That was a bold and necessary move. Now its time for the Communist Party and the People's Weekly World to take another deep breath and boldly leap into the 21st century world of mass communicating. We think we found a way to revolutionize our communications and our fund raising campaigns at the same time. We've come up with a 7-day "electronic march", as a kind of trial run on the superhighway. During the 7 days, from April 4 through April 10, all day and evening, we will have toll-free 800 lines open for call-ins, conference calls, forums, interviews and more. We will invite people and organizations to send faxes to the paper and party that we will respond to on any question or issue. We will print many of the faxes, letters, questions and ideas we get. People with modems and computers can communicate with us through our electronic mailbox. We will answer every one. We will work to put the Party's positions and PWW articles on Peace-Net, LaborNet, EcoNet and Internet. We are planning phone conferences on issues that will bring people together from trade unions, community and mass movements on issues. For example, a phone conference that will bring together steelworkers and steel union activists, Black, Brown and white, from around the country to discuss the new problems confronting the workforce and the union in the steel industry, including the struggle against racism. We will organize calls to readers of the PWW to conduct surveys, referendums and polls on issues, but also on how to make the best newspaper in the country even better. We will go all out on publicity and public relations, such as getting C-Span and public access TV air time, faxing PR packets to radio talk shows around the country, offering Communist guests for their shows. We will organize panels, phone-a-thons, roundtables on all kinds of special hookups, including satellite and video linkups. The politics of the seven-day conference will be the politics and vital issues of the day. Perhaps for the first time the Communist Party and the People's Weekly World will be able to inject its unique plus into the mainstream of thought patterns and enter the debate on the vital issues of our day, utilizing the very latest scientific technology and equipment available to reach the maximum number of people at the same time. Our goal is to reach and exchange with our readers and friends, but also with many millions more that we could never reach without the new, cutting edge, mass communications technology. For the first time our vision of socialism, of "speaking to millions" about the socialist future will be at our electronic fingertips. In breaking through on the superhighway we will more fully be competing for the hearts and minds of the working class, USA on equal footing with rightwing TV preachers and two old party hacks. This is our opportunity to break through the ruling class information fog. The new technology enables us to make a breakthrough that can't be jammed. At the end of the 7 days of events and happenings, we will organize national, open, public town hall meetings. As much as possible, these public events will be in the form of national radio or phone hookups. And we are looking into the possibility of satellite TV or video hookups. After the 7 days, we will study the experiences from the viewpoint of how much of the new methods and technologies we want to adopt and incorporate into our newspaper and our Party's work. We are still novices at all this. But we are very enthusiastic and excited beginners who have some very experienced people cheering us on. Launching such a project is news in itself. Headlines like "Communists take to the electronic superhighway", will make great stories. Our first big drive on the Electronic Superhighway cannot be successful without your full participation. Of course, it will take a lot of planning and work, lots of imagination, creativity, innovative and bold thinking. We invite all our friends to participate. We invite anyone just interested in hearing our views or commenting on our ideas to participate. We have already set the wheels in motion. We need your support, enthusiasm and participation. And, your ideas. Let your imagination run wild. Remember, today's wild ideas can become tomorrow's revolutionary reality. Help us put sign posts on the electronic superhighway that point toward socialism. ` With a hearty electronic handshake, GUS HALL ************************************************************** (reprinted from the People's Weekly World) A people's march on the Electronic Superhighway Dear Reader, I am writing to invite you to join us in a People's March down the Electronic Superhighway. During the week of Monday, April 4 through Sunday, April 10 we will use 1-800 telephone numbers, computer modems, telephone conference calls and camcorders to exchange views on the burning issues of the day: jobs, national health care and the 1994 elections. This project is the centerpiece of our People's Weekly World/Nuestro Mundo 1994 fund drive that starts March 1 and ends July 4. It is a bold, state-of-the-art, century twenty-one approach that we believe will generate so much enthusiasm that participants will contribute toward our fund goal of $400,000. It will also help us make the best newspaper in the U.S. even better. Our goal is dialogue with our readers, interactive communications as they call it. If there are labor or other mass leaders who you want us to interview by phone, give us a call. The World and Nuestro Mundo staff, together with the national staff of the Communist Party, will be available to take calls between 9 a.m. and midnight Eastern Time during that week. We also plan a number of telephone conference calls on urgent topics like single payer national health care. One idea is to have Gus Hall, a founder of the United Steelworkers of America, host a call linking steelworkers across the country. The electronic march will end April 10, with a conference call linking a series of town meetings across the country where participants will discuss plans for making the fightback against Corporate America's attack on the people. At each, we will appeal for funds for the PWW. The World and Mundo will carry extensive coverage of the weekUs activities. We will reserve pages of the paper for letters to the editor in the weeks following the project. We should invite friends and allies in the mass movements to join this electronic march. If we reach out we can sell hundreds of new subs and raise tens of thousands of dollars for the fund drive. Although we are still organizing the project and there's lots to be done we are not waiting. We are now connected to PeaceNet, LaborNet, and EcoNet. We are also looking into ways of putting World/Mundo articles on Internet, a computer network with 15 million subscribers around the world. So now people with computers and modems can send us messages via our electronic mailbox. Our computer address is: timwheeler@igc.apc.org We'll try to answer every E-mail message we get!. We are convinced that this project will put us in the fast lane of the electronic superhighway. Stay tuned for details.

To: wsn@csf.colorado.edu, ipe@csf.colorado.edu Message-Id: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET=US-ASCII Hi there. I'm developing a hypertext time-line of American interventionism in Central America throughout the Reagan and Bush administrations. This will include covert and counter-revolutionary measures taken by the US. The paper will be distributed on the World-Wide-Web. The working title of this paper is: World Systems Theory: The Political Economy of American Interventionism in Central America through the 80's (original, heh?) The professor that I'm developing this paper for wants to see lots of correlations between both micro and macro-level events in this timeline and the theoretical framework which I'm using - world systems theory/IPE. Does anyone out there have any sources or suggestions to share? I'm particularly interested in macro-level contexts and the application of wsn/ipe to this chronology, and in hearing your personal perspective - which I could include in the bibliography! Also, if you have access to information which won't be readily available in mainstream texts and border-line propaganda/misinformation, that also would be extremely helpful. Many thanks, Greg Searle PS. If anyone else is interested in the kind of relational constructs that can be accomplished using hypertext as opposed to the linear transmission of knowledge, and would like to have progressive docs up on the World-Wide-Web, please let me know. Also, if CSF would like someone to set up a www server for precisely this purpose on their machine, I could help out. Recall that the WWW is not only a distributed hypertext system on computers around the world, suited for authoring and transmitting a diversity of cognitive maps and learning styles, but that it also can serve up graphical images, place emphasis within paragraphs, provide nifty table of contents and indexing, etc. @@@@ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= [DUBIOUS DISCLAIMER tm] c'o-o | : Gregory L.

We have spoken on the phone once after you informed me that my paper "The Democratic Transition Model: Debt, Democracy and Welfare Effort in 4 Semi-peripheral Nations, 1959-1986" was one of two selected for the ISA Young Sociologist Competition. Currently I am also on the awards committee for the 1994 Political Sociology Section (of the ASA) Distinguished Graduate Student paper award. So I need to get the announcement of competition to as many students and their advisors as possible.
