The crackpot that was invited to the ICSS is in no organization and has nothing to do with organized Trotskyism. He has not been invited to any Trotskyist events in the bay area or in the world but he was invited by the backers of Stalinist Grover Furr supporters Raj Saji and Eugene Ruyle despite the fact that he is a well known anti-semite and also is against immigrant workers saying that they are "scabs".
Furr defends the mass purges in the Soviet Union by Stalin argues that Trotsky was a Nazi agent. It is interesting but not surprising that Furr's supporters are now inviting an anti-Semite and anti-immigrant basher to their Marx event.
This character was also invited by the Peace and Freedom Party leadership to their Berkeley event even though they know as well his reactionary anti-semitic and anti-immigrant political positions. No other "Trotskyist" group in the world holds these positions.
The real question is why the Stalinist ICSS leadership would invite this individual to speak in the commemoration of Marx?
