Why We Must Stand with Venezuela
A conversation with Venezuela Analysis: A Critique of Whitewashing the Imperialist Siege on Venezuela
Simultaneous interpretation in English and Spanish
Venezuelans went to the polls on July 28 for a Presidential election with an imperialist pistol pressed firmly against their skulls. This webinar will explain how US imperialism has conditioned and sharpened every aspect of the Bolivarian Revolution’s internal contradictions, while a stratum of US-based intellectuals make false ‘left’ critiques that deliberately obscure the permanent siege against the country. Conversely, Venezuela’s social movements rightly regard these threats as existential and continue to firmly stand with the Maduro government.
Our speakers:
Caracas-based Ricardo Vaz is the editor of Venezuelanalysis and also a member of grassroots collectives Tatuy Tv and Utopix. Lucas Koerner joined the Venezuelanalysis team in 2015. He is currently pursuing a doctorate at Harvard University.
Webinar co-sponsor Venezuelanalysis (https://venezuelanalysis.com/) is an independent, English-language website dedicated to producing news and analysis about the current political situation in Venezuela. Venezuelanalysis counters the corporate media propaganda against the Bolivarian Revolution by giving a voice to leftist and grassroots movements in Venezuela.
