With Trump’s desire for an imperialist takeover of the island, international solidarity is needed. Unfortunately, the Cuban government is enacting measures that further open up a “free market” economy and place it more firmly on the path of capitalist restoration. Learn about the current situation in Cuba and how to defend the country’s sovereignty, fight the embargo and provide support.

6. Thursday, 6:30pm – 8:00pm, Solidarity Presence in the West Bank: Report back
Private home:
1925 Hudson St.
El Cerrito, CA
Come with an open mind & heart as you listen to the first-hand accounts from two US volunteers with the International Solidarity Movement (ISM). We’ll discuss the importance of the ISM’s Palestinian-led activism, where we stay with families most at-risk of expulsion and state-backed settler violence. Solidarity presence means to bear witness and document such atrocities while hoping to deter violence and keep Palestinians on their land.
Amidst the escalation of ethnic cleansing, there are many ways to support the movement, both on the ground in the West Bank, and especially at home. We will give a presentation and allow plenty of time for discussion.
