The next edition of Peace & Freedom Party’s co-sponsored Suds, Snacks & Socialism monthly forum series at the Starry Plough Pub in Berkeley (3101 Shattuck Avenue; click here for map) will be held on Saturday, April 5, 2025, 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. Doors open at 1:30 p.m. All are welcome to discuss the topic of Trump and the Rest of the World: What is New and What Isn't.

Has U.S. foreign policy changed under the second Trump administration? Have other countries altered their relations with each other in response to U.S. policy? Will the endless wars ever end? And if so, under what conditions?
Join our speakers who will explain what is going on in several regions, including Russia, Ukraine, the EU countries, Turkey and Syria:
Anthony D’Agostino – Professor emeritus in history at SF State University; currently host of a YouTube show, “Glasnost in Our Time”; author of 5 books, dealing with the Russian Revolution, the World Wars, and the Cold War
Mehmet Bayram – freelance journalist who writes for the Sendika.org news outlet, which has been shut down 62 times by the Turkish government
Please help us celebrate our return to the Starry Plough by ordering food and/or drinks. Please try to arrive early to place your order so that you do not miss any of the presentations. An open discussion will follow the presentations. We will be accepting donations which will be divided among the sponsoring organizations.
This event is co-sponsored by the Alameda County Peace & Freedom Party, The Alameda Green Party, and Bay Area System Change Not Climate Change. The forum is part of our ongoing Socialist Forum Series on the first Saturday of every month. Our purpose is informed political discussion, and the views expressed are those of the speakers only, not necessarily the official positions of the Peace & Freedom Party or our fellow co-sponsors.
