United Against Imperialism and War: Growing International Solidarity

As the coalition of university movements calling for a university strike on November 21st, we invite everyone to a panel with leading scholars and activists, where we will discuss growing an international movement against imperialist war and Israel’s genocide against the Palestinian people. The conversation will focus on the current state of the university movements, the repressions that we face, how we can best advance our struggles and develop international solidarity, and form growing coalitions between and beyond the universities.

As those fighting on different continents and countries, we know that our struggles are interconnected across geographies, just as imperialist war machinery spans across the globe. While in our countries millions have been on the streets calling for an end to war and genocide, our governments continue to fund massacres, fill monopolies’ pockets, and our universities continue their complicity through investments, and creation of knowledge and technologies. We unite with the knowledge that fighting against the international war and corporate machinery behind Israel requires a similarly internationally institutionalized front of resistance that can act together, share lessons, tactics, strategies; and organize to stop universities’ complicity and the international transfer of weapons, energy, materials, goods, technologies etc. that makes war and genocide possible.

Join the discussion on November 7th, 12-2pm ET! The speakers are: Jodi Dean, Professor of Politics at Hobart and William Smith Colleges, author of many books including “The Communist Horizon,” “Crowds and Party,” and “Comrade;” Miriam Osman from the Palestinian Youth Movement; and Genessee
Floressantos from Labor for Palestine National Network.
