Defending Self-Determination From DC to Venezuela

January 21 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
An Assata Shakur Study Group on US Military Escalation: From the Invasion of Venezuela to National Guard in DC

The U.S. is escalating its war on the Global South—from attacks on Venezuela to the use of military force, ICE deportations and juvenile curfews, including the National Guard deployment in DC. Join Pan African Community Action (PACA) to unpack how the U.S. empire and its allies justify invasion and terror through media narratives, sanctions, and so called “international law”, while denying people’s right to self-determination. We will examine ongoing resistance in Venezuela and why these struggles matter for working-class and oppressed communities everywhere. The discussion will also connect foreign militarism to domestic repression and the need to build real community power in Southeast D.C.

Food will be provided!
