Cuba And The Concept Of Community Of Nations

March 21, 2020 Bill Hackwell, Resumen Latinoamericano, North America bureau Educate! Coronavirus COVID-19, Cuba, Solidarity

Some years ago I was talking to a Cuban doctor about what a remarkable achievement it was that Cuba was able to eliminate Malaria in 1973. He took the discussion in stride and said that it didn’t mean much until we eradicate Malaria in the entire world. Today Cuba is proving once again that their view of health and battling diseases is one that is global in scope and despite living under the unilateral 60-year-old US blockade, with additional sanctions coming their way daily...

Radical Solidarity Through Covid-19

March 18, 2020 Staff, Mutualaiddisasterrelief.org Organize! Coronavirus COVID-19, Solidarity

Community mobilizations for mutual aid and medical solidarity have formed in as many spaces as the new coronavirus (Covid-19) has spread. From continent to continent, people have innovated and navigated through information suppression, governmental inadequacy and unpreparedness as well as supply shortages in panic-economies with global financial markets plummeting. The global pandemic is a disaster enveloping all of the intersections where climate catastrophes typically surge, storm-batter and strand impacted regions, but when every community is a different version of ground zero, sourcing from within, in as much as possible, becomes a critical component.

January 31, 2020 Staff, Roarmag.com Create! Cities, Europe, Solidarity

Across Europe, urban solidarity movements are gaining momentum. Under the label of “Welcoming Cities,” “Cities of Refuge” or “Solidarity Cities,” civil society groups, local politicians and city administrations are defying the growing restrictions of border regimes and migration policies on the European and national level. At the same time, these movements develop specific municipal policies for the protection or social inclusion of people with precarious status.

Today, Venezuela is the target of a hybrid and multidimensional (economic, financial, diplomatic, media and military) aggression, which is seriously impacting the life of the country and its people. This offensive has benefitted from the support of governments serving the interests of the United States and of stateless and elitist internal political forces.

All Eyes On Wet’suwet’en: International Call For Week Of Solidarity!

January 7, 2020 Staff, Itsgoingdown.org Resist! Indigenous Peoples, Solidarity

Unceded and sovereign Wet’suwet’en land is under attack. On December 31, 2019, BC Supreme Court Justice Marguerite Church granted an injunction against members of the Wet’suwet’en nation who have been stewarding and protecting our traditional territories from the destruction of multiple pipelines, including Coastal GasLink’s (CGL) liquified natural gas (LNG) pipeline.

Beating The Western Media Blockade – Ideas, Infrastructure, Solidarity

January 1, 2020 By Jorge Capelán and Stephen Sefton, Tortillaconsal.com Educate! Media, Solidarity

So much confusion and bad faith prevails in the current global information chaos that getting back to basics sometimes seems impossible. But fundamentals never change and merit constant repetition. Above all, anti-imperialist defense of majority world peoples' right to development against the fascist onslaught of the corporate and political power of the United States and Europe demands resolute unity. There is no third way in a global conflict between the rights of the world's peoples to peace, justice and well-being and the all consuming militarist greed of the Western corporate elites and their allies.

The Freedom Flotilla Will Make Its 35th Attempt To Sail To Gaza In 2020

December 27, 2019 By Ramzy Baroud, Mintpressnews.com Resist! Flotilla, Israel, Nationalism, Solidarity

The solidarity mission is scheduled for the summer of 2020, and, like most of the 35 previous attempts, the Flotilla is likely to be intercepted by the Israeli navy. What is Gaza to us but an Israeli missile, a rudimentary rocket, a demolished home, an injured child being whisked away by his peers under a hail of bullets? On a daily basis, Gaza is conveyed to us as a bloody image or a dramatic video, none of which can truly capture the everyday reality of the Strip – its formidable steadfastness, the everyday acts of resistance, and the type of suffering that can never be really understood through a customary glance at a social media post.
