[WSMDiscuss] Fwd: Solidarity Webinar - Save the Date May 20 : Organized Chile : The Popular Uprising During The Pandemic - Updates from Activists on the Front Lines in the Time of COVID-19

Tue May 12 15:05:24 CEST 2020

Hi all,

Apologies about the inconvenient timing of this call with regard to African
and Asian time zones.

When we planned the call, we had in mind an audience in North America and
Chile.  We were trying to find a time that zoom would work well--earlier
times in the day when internet traffic is higher, zoom sometimes freezes
up--and since we are using simultaneous translation, we were very concerned
about that.

We will record the session and make sure it is available to others who
would like to see it but cannot.  In addition, we will take this time zone
issue into consideration when planning subsequent webinars.

My apologies for the inconvenience.

Thanks for raising this important concern!
