About Us
Our vision of a fair and just society is one without oppression, racism, homophobia, sexism, ableism, and all other kinds of chauvinism, and we intend to act against these for the health of our community. SSL will engage in community service, organize political events, hold discussions regarding various issues including class, the economy, and racial justice, and will work closely with local organizations and other RSOs to help uplift our campus, and connect students to the wider community. We will work to nourish organizational work and experience in both the campus communities and the diverse working-class communities of Champaign-Urbana. We emphasize that to tackle these goals, we must work for the development of socialism in the United States and elsewhere; working on campus with students is the first step in this direction. SSL will work to provide educational and organizational opportunities in the realm of anti-imperialist work as well, as such work is deeply important for both the international, out-of-state, in-state, and local students studying at the University of Illinois.
