The recently re-founded Argentina Solidarity Campaign welcomes you to their first public event. Held symbolically on the eve of Argentina’s Independence Day, they invite you to an evening of documentaries and debate, celebrating recent resistances against neoliberalism and extractivism and raising awareness of the current political and economic situation in the country.
This includes the university student protests against funding cuts, indigenous peoples’ defence of their natural habitats and the environment against Monsanto and other multinationals, The CTA union’s strike against public sector redundancies and pay cuts, Argentina’s battle against the vulture funds and its illegitimate debt, opposition to the arrest of Milagro Sala, leader of the Tupac Amaru neighborhood association and many more.
All are welcome, the event is FREE of charge. Documentaries will be in Spanish with English subtitles. Come along, bring friends and prepare to discuss and debate in a friendly and politically pluralist environment!
