Description

In an obscure corner of the infinite-multiverse, on an alternate-Earth, in the mid-21st century, the right to vote of millions of Working Class Americans had recently been totally destroyed, freeing the Ruling Class — with the power their money gave them — to dictate the shape of national government. The Rich were afraid that without the vote the worst of the Rabble would revolt, destroying Elitist civilization. So the Rulers prepared to have protestors shot in the streets; rebellious slaves do not deserve to live.
Preparing for an inevitable Anti-Capitalist Revolution, learning to Share, Working Class people organize themselves to grow free-food for the Poor and the Homeless; they create Tent Neighborhoods in public parks for those running from sea-coasts devastated by melting glaciers due to Climate Change; and establish the Anarkhist Army of the Appendix to aid ordinary people in the coming Revolution, as the Rich use violence to keep their money and their social power.
Soon after the COVID pandemic has worn itself out, a special, secret committee in the US Senate — in order to get rid of worthless, excess, unemployed Workers — released mutated, antiviral-resistant Smallpox on a nation which was completely unvaccinated for that devastating disease, since vaccinations for Smallpox ended in 1972 after the disease was eradicated in the USA.
Totally unsupported by a government dedicated only to protecting and enabling the Rich Elites, ordinary working-Americans — desperately seeking to control their own lives, their ailing planet, and their civilization — struggle together onward toward a effective anti-Capitalist Revolution.
How can people prepare for life without Capitalism; how do they struggle for a better future living in Voluntary Socialism?
Can the Revolutionaries of North America survive the violent backlash from those Elites who most Profit from Capitalism?

Learning to Share,
this third book in the Rabble and the Rich ® series
is prequeled by The Butterfly Caper and The Secret Experiment .
two novels about diverse people in a Voluntary-Socialist -Commune
attempting a non-violent Revolution, teaching Socialist values to their children.
This fictional story, the novel-in-hand, is of people organizing to fight an Anti-Capitalist,
unfortunately-violent Revolution in North America
in an alternate-version of Earth somewhere in the infinite-Multiverse .

It continues on in the next novel,
Inhabit the Earth ,
the fourth-book in the Rabble and the Rich Quintology,
as the Revolution begins,
and is concluded in The People’s Solidarity of North America

Revolutionaries must constantly be working to shed centuries of ruling class indoctrination that serves to divide and conquer the vast laboring class. Every form of bigotry and backwardness holds back unity and progress in a revolutionary struggle of all [ colours ] , [ ethnicities ] , [ cultures ] , [ abilities ] , [ sizes ] , sexualities, genders, and sexes to abolish Capitalism and liberate humanity.

INTRODUCTION
“ The Storming of the Bastille is the defining moment of world history . It kicks off an era of revolution that continues today. As such, it provides lessons as the UR -revolution.
“ The Storming of the Bastille forms a crucial turning point not just for France, but for all of humanity. As the initial spark of the French Revolution, it initiated a period of history that proved collective social action [ can ] sweep away the vestiges of humanity’s despotic past .
The next three years laid waste to archaic notions of “a place for every man and every man in his place.” [ Also ] , the myth of Divine Royal Authority took a bloody good hiding.
Humanity now had compelling evidence that world history could be totally redefined by the [ organized ] majority .”

Notes by Treedottir-Solley, Historian-Editor:
I was born a citizen of the People’s Solidarity of North America, the PSNA, in the mid-Eastern Division.
My research for this novel of Revolutionary History, about our ancestors’ collective battle more than 200 years ago against the venal forces of Capitalism, has been done while sitting comfortably in the library of my family-home in Cranberry Village in the Cuyahoga District of what used to be the eastern-most “mid-western” State of Ohio, on the southern shore of what was once Lake Erie.
I imagine it will be hard for our modern youth to understand how the world was constructed more than 200 years ago, after the fall of the Soviet Union, when all the Working Class People of Earth were once again enslaved to Capitalism.
It is nearly impossible for anyone born Free — as we all are in our People’s Solidarity — to fully understand the horror of what it is like to be enslaved economically to the ideals and to the sociopathic-winners of Capitalism. And that is only a pale image of the real chattel-slavery endured by our Black ancestors before the USA’s nineteenth century Civil War finally outlawed chattel-slavery ( except of duly-convicted criminals in prison; an atrocity we have subsequently gotten rid of).
Unfortunately, we still have left on this Earth pockets of Capitalist Blight where everyone is enslaved — except those who do not work, the Bourgeoisie — or the Boogees, as we commonly call them — those slothful-people, most of whom are consciously white-supremacists, the Enemies of decency, sanity, and Freedom.

I do not know how the Revolution was constructed by humans belonging to other cultures elsewhere in the world. In this historical novel, I must restrict myself to the P eople’s S olidarity of N orth A merica and write only what I know.
I hope in the future to read accounts of how we might finally be able to rid ourselves of the last cancerous areas of Capitalism on our planet, and rescue from slavery all the Working Class humans in those Blighted areas.
Here in North America, “Blighted” means the former state of Texas-and-part-of-Oklahoma-combined calling itself the Texas Free State, as well as most of the counties of North and South Carolina now calling themselves Greater Carolina. Also the combined old USA states of Louisiana, Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Florida, and Mississippi are now the New Confederate Union where —in an atmosphere of extreme white-supremacy and misogyny — melanin-rich skin, homosexuality, abortion-choice, gender-fluidity, and free speech, as in Texas Free State, are capital crimes.
Most Black people — the descendents of those people who were enslaved in chattel-slavery in the USA (considered by many to be the worst condition of Slavery in all of history, anywhere on Earth) before the Civil War— have fled the New Confederate Union, making the new “nation” entirely white. Who now is doing the work? My guess is members of the Boogees’ alternative source of slave labor: Poor-white-people. Despised because they are Poor; employed at starvation wages because there are no enslaved Black people to force to work for nothing; and worked to death because there are, of course, no honorable retirement options for Prole-Oldsters who, unable to work, would just be a drain on society. “Society” meaning the rich white Boogees and their privileged offspring.
In what had been western Canada, the Provinces of British Columbia , Alberta , Yukon, Saskatchewan , the NorthWest Territories, Nunavut, Manitoba , and including the former USA state of Alaska — despite internal Left-wing objections — the Boogees and their lackeys united themselves under Capitalism and became the Royal Canadian Empire of the West. Then the new government began systematically executing all its Progressive people — all those who were not able to escape — for “ plottingTreason. ”
Mexico — due to the extreme poverty of its peoples — was lost to Capitalism, and in its entire joined the PSNA. We consider Mexico to be an especially rich addition to our Solidarity, because Workers — those wonderfully productive human beings — are the shining wealth of Socialism.
Spots of Blight where Capitalism is still being practiced dot every continent on the planet. None of our Revolutions are over, anywhere on Earth.
The Capitalists are particularly upset, we understand, by the loss of Workers in what Texas Free State considers to be its most southern counties, (northern Mexico), south of the Rio Grande. Those anti-Solidarity, super-Conservative forces, aided by far-“ right ”-wingnuts in the former “ right-to-work ” areas of Greater Carolina, Texas Free State, and the New Confederate Union, have always felt that the anti-racist, non-misogynist, pro-union, and other Progressive ideals of our People’s Solidarity restrict their so-called “ freedom ” to violently oppress — for their personal profit — the people and ideas with which they disagree. Real Freedom for All, regardless of colour, gender, religious-beliefs, etc, in a sharing-society of Equals , is anathema to them.

Most of the history I will be reporting (in the form of fiction) will be about the area where I live and the people who lived here, my ancestors and the ancestors of my dearest friends and neighbors. I hope historians working in non-Capitalist
