Militant/John Naubert

Supporters of the socialist campaign bring the Militant, its Spanish-language sister publication Perspectiva Mundial, and a selection of Pathfinder books to the picket line of striking cannery workers from the Snokist plant in the Yakima Valley, Washington, October 25, during a visit by Socialist Workers Party presidential candidate Róger Calero (see article in this issue).

By reaching out to working-class resistance in the Northwest, and bringing others along with them as they do, participants in the international Militant/PM subscription drive from Seattle have kept ahead of pace on their local subscription goal.

The drive, which aims to win more than 2,800 new readers to the Militant and PM, ends November 21. So far, 1,652 new readers have been won to the Militant and 374 to PM in the first nine weeks of the 12-week campaign—that’s 73 Militant subscriptions and 39 PM subscriptions behind pace. In the final weeks, campaigners will need to step up the effort to make and surpass the goals.

This effort coincides with a special Pathfinder Supersaver sale, in which more than two-dozen Pathfinder titles on the history and practice of the revolutionary workers movement are steeply discounted through November 30.
