Building Solidarity With the Arab Spring November 12, 2011

Saturday November 12th, 10am to 6pm

No development in recent years has exemplified the global fight for justice as have the Arab Revolutions of 2011. Millions upon millions of people have, with incredible courage, defied autocrats and dictators who have ruled repressively for decades.

Yet for all the incredible successes of the Revolutions, questions remain about the way forward. Mubarak and Ben Ali have been forced from power; but what about their regimes, which remain largely intact and continue to attempt to roll back the revolutions? How can the struggles in Bahrain, Syria, and Yemen, which have been confronted by brutal repressive violence, advance and win? What comes next in Libya, now that Qaddafi's regime is gone? What do the uprisings mean for the liberation of Palestine?

Moreover, we solidarity activists in the U.S. face questions for our own activity. What can we do to provide practical solidarity to the Revolutions?
