[Disclaimer : I don't personally know either the person posting or the organisation he has founded and is posting on behalf of; but – and perhaps expectably, given the orientation of the organisation – I do see him posting regularly on different lists on the crisis in Venezuela – and I’m therefore, at the crucial present juncture, taking the chance of forwarding this post of his.

What’s going on right now in Venezuela? Come see for yourself by connecting with the grassroots movements at the heart of Venezuela’s Bolivarian Revolution. Come with us to celebrate workers’ day, MAY DAY, in Caracas, Venezuela, get to know the Venezuelan anti-imperialist working class and come join us in the great march of the workers with President Nicolas Maduro.

The Alberto Lovera Bolivarian Circle of New York invites trade unionists, workers, journalists,  analysts and other activists to know the movement of Venezuelan revolutionary workers during the celebrations of May First who sympathize with the Bolivarian Revolution to join a delegation to Caracas, Venezuela this coming May. Witness: the struggle of the Venezuelan people in the framework of one of the most critical time for the survival of the Bolivarian revolution and in the midst of an economic warfare and multiple economic sanctions imposed by Donald Trump’ administration. come and see for yourselves the reality of the country learn that there is no humanitarian crisis but an economic war led by the United States and its allies in the region.
