Viruses in movement…, Chile in movement…, Resistance in movement…, Solidarity in movement !

[It’s great to see this solidarity webinar being organised, with those on the frontlines in Chile, which is one of the key locations – hotspots ! - globally in terms of resistance to the neoliberal project.  Unfortunately however, it’s been scheduled at a time when it’ll be impractical for people in more than half the world to join in…!  (Time wise, it’s suitable only for people in the Americas, North or South, and cuts all of Africa, Asia, and Europe out of the picture...)  This is a big pity, and a good opportunity lost, but I think the organisers normally work with a global perspective and so can only assume that there are good reasons why they have decided to do things this way this time :    
Solidarity Webinar, Wednesday May 20, 7 pm ET :

Organized Chile : The Popular Uprising During The Pandemic
Updates from activists on the front lines of the fight for rights and territory in the face of COVID-19
