Dear editor, From Africa, receive our message of solidarity and support. I'm a militant of the Fourth International Senegalese Section (O.S.T.). Despite the distance and difficulties we meet here, I sometimes get issues of Socialist Action.

Socialist Action covers a wide range of analysis. The class point of view is a solid bedrock that makes it useful and important in training people towards class independence. I liked your analysis of Black nationalism and of the workers' fight in the United States. Latin America's struggles and the Central American revolution are well described too.

I want to receive your newspaper regularly, but imperialist domination and I.M.F. measures are more and more lessening my small wage. Thanks to all of you.

Moussa, Dakar, Senegal, West Africa Dear editor, I was saddened to learn of the death of Chen Bilan. I had hoped to get back in touch with her, since we had become friends While I was interviewing Shuzhi [her companion] for my thesis during the mid and late 1970s.

The loss of Shuzhi in 1983 and, now Bilan, is a great loss to people in struggle around the world. Their lives will continue to be inspirational.

Joe Miller, Cedar Falls, Iowa If Berezin v. Feinstein is brought before a jury, the public will be treated to a rigorous and much-needed examination of First Amendment rights-and authoritarian wrongs.

The plaintiffs ask that arrestees, witnesses, or anyone with pertinent information call (415) 658-8917.

Mark Cook,
