Tomorrow for our weekly Third World Study Group session we’ll be reading about the U.S backed coup against the democratically elected president of Chile, Salvador Allende.

We’ll be reading a brief history of Chile and Allende’s policies that sought to uplift the Chilean people rather than the private corporations. Then we’ll close out by reading Allende’s famous last speech that he gave over radio as the enemy troops where advancing.

⁨📷⁩ ⁨This Wednesday, we will be reading excerpts from “Black Scare, Red Scare” by Dr. Charisse Burden-Stelly. This book examines how the state used anti-black repression and anti-communist repression to continue to entrench the country into capitalist domination and as a tool of imperialism. Join us in person or over zoom to read and explore these topics further! Attend in person or online via Zoom!

This week for our Third World Study Group we will be looking at selected writings from Africans in America who connected their struggle for liberation with the struggle for liberation and decolonization in Palestine. Organizers and theoreticians such as Malcolm X, Kwame Ture, and Shaka Shakur have demonstrated through practice what internationalism really means and looks like.
