SUMMARY:January: Cuba Car Caravan Against the U.S. Blockade of Cuba/Caravana Contra el Bloqueo
DESCRIPTION:January: Cuba Car Caravan Against the U.S. Blockade of Cuba/Caravana Contra el Bloqueo \nSunday\, January 29\, 2023 At 1 PM – 3 PM \nSouth High School (Minneapolis) parking lot\, then Lake Street to Blaisdell and back to South. \nEnd the U.S. Blockade of Cuba!Take Cuba off the U.S. State Sponsors of Terrorism.\nJoin SCOTA\, the Minnesota Cuba Committee and others for our monthly car caravan against the US blockade of Cuba. Meet us at South High School in Minneapolis or WATCH LIVE on Facebook.\nThis month\, we’re focusing on the continuation of Cuba on the list of nations that the U.S. designates as “terrorist.”\nMore than 10\,000 people and 100 progressive advocacy groups have signed an open letter urging President Joe Biden to reverse the Trump administration’s terrorism designation for Cuba and to reinstate Obama-era policy for the island.\nThe international outcry against the U.S. intentional starvation blockade of Cuba is growing. These actions powerfully refute the U.S. claim that Marco Rubio\, Bob Menendez and Ted Cruz anti-Cuba campaign represents us.\nNow in their third year\, the public bike and car caravans that started in Miami and led by Cuban-Americans have broken up that myth. Watch this video produced by Cuban-Americans in Miami for the September 25 caravans (in Spanish with English subtitles).———————————Car caravan details:\nSouth High School parking lot\, 3131 19th Ave So\, Minneapolis12:30: Volunteer car marshal training1:00: Line up and add signs and flags to cars at South High School parking lot\, 3131 19th Ave So\, Minneapolis.

SUMMARY:Show Your Love for Venezuela!
DESCRIPTION:Show Your Love for Venezuela!\nFriday\, Feb 10th from 7-9 pm\n4200 Cedar Ave. S\, Minneapolis\n\nThe Anti-War Committee is sending 2 committee members on a delegation to Venezuela in March to learn about the effects of US sanctions first hand. Trump’s Muslim ban (which included Venezuela) made it difficult for Venezuelans to come here and US sanctions have made the situation very difficult for Venezuelans during a global pandemic. Sending folks from MN is an important act of solidarity and will bring back needed information! Help us send them to Venezuela on the upcoming Alliance for Global Justice delegation.\n\nThere will also be a silent auction so you can bid on a Valentines Day gift basket.\n\nDonations can be tax deductible and can be made out to the Anti-War Education Fund with Venezuela in the memo or made online.

SUMMARY:Call-in days - messages for President Biden and Senators Klobuchar and Smith
DESCRIPTION:FEB 13 AT 8 AM – FEB 15 AT 6 PM \nA VALENTINE TO CUBA -MINNESOTA LOVES CUBA:\nPART OF THE CAMPAIGN TO TAKE CUBA OFF THE US STATE SPONSORS OF TERRORISM LIST.\\n\n\nCall-in days from Feb. 13-15 – messages for President Biden and Senators Klobuchar and Smith\nWe will provide phone numbers and scripts closer to the dates of the call in days. You can find this information on this Facebook post.\nBackground information:\n\nSCOTA is committed to support Cuba building a peaceful and prosperous future. We oppose intervention in Cuba by the United States. One way to support a brighter future for Cuba is to take action against Cuba being on the US State Sponsors of Terrorism list.\n\nNine days before leaving office\, Trump designated Cuba a State Sponsor of Terrorism. Two years later\, Biden has kept Cuba on the terrorism blacklist. Ironically\, Cuba has been a victim of U.S.-based terrorism — not a sponsor of terrorism. There is no credible evidence to support the designation\, which is aimed to devastate Cuba’s economy by cutting it off from international credit and investment.by being on the list\, the resulting sanctions and international restrictions limit Cuba’s ability to purchase medicines for its population and to reboot its economy after the COVID pandemic. The Cuban people are the ones who suffer from these restrictions.\nPresident Biden can unilaterally remove Cuba from the United States list of state sponsors of terrorism by an executive order. We can urge Senators Klobuchar and Smith and our congressional delegation to advocate with President Biden to remove Cuba from the list. Most importantly we must demand that President Biden remove Cuba from this list.\n\nPlease join SCOTA campaign to take Cuba off the list and support the Cuban people. Our campaign will take place in February to show the love of Minnesotans for the Cuban people.

SUMMARY:Neoliberal Apartheid And Imperial Policing With Andy Clarno
DESCRIPTION:SATURDAY\, FEBRUARY 25\, 2023 AT 10 AM – 11:30 AM\nOnline Event\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/…/reg…/WN_Q46038RMTUiSLbI5CuwRrg\n\nAs apartheid becomes a popular framework for analyzing Palestine/Israel today\, a look at the limits of liberation in “post-apartheid” South Africa challenges us rethink the definition of what apartheid is and when it ends. Against the dominant definition of apartheid\, the radical wing of the South African liberation movement offered an alternative understanding of apartheid as a system of racial capitalism. Rethinking apartheid with this lens helps us understand extreme inequality\, racialized poverty\, and militarized policing in South Africa\, Palestine/Israel\, and the United States today. Because neoliberal apartheid regimes are highly unstable social formations\, policing becomes ever more essential to the maintenance of social order. Professor Clarno analyzes the policing in Johannesburg\, Jerusalem\, and Chicago by tracing the circulation of knowledge and technology through networks of private and state security forces that coordinate to protect the powerful by policing the racialized poor.\n\nAndy Clarno is associate professor of Sociology and Black Studies and coordinator of the Policing in Chicago Research Group at the University of Illinois at Chicago. He is the author of Neoliberal Apartheid: Palestine/Israel and South Africa after 1994 (University of Chicago Press 2017).\nPlease direct questions about this event to mepn@mepn.org.\n\nThank you to our forum sponsors\, Northfielders for Justice in Palestine and Israel

SUMMARY:February: Cuba Car Caravan
DESCRIPTION:February: Cuba Car Caravan -Take Cuba off the U.S. State Sponsored Terrorism List \nSUNDAY Feb 26 AT 1 PM – 3 PM \nWe are rounding out our “Show Love for Cuba” month with our monthly car caravan.\n-End the U.S. Blockade of Cuba\n-Take Cuba off the U.S. State Sponsors of Terrorism\nJoin SCOTA\, the Minnesota Cuba Committee and others for our monthly car caravan against the US blockade of Cuba. Meet us at South High School in Minneapolis or WATCH LIVE on this page.\nThis month we’re focusing on the continuation of Cuba on the list of nations that the U.S. designates as “terrorist.”\nMore than 10\,000 people and 100 progressive advocacy groups have signed an open letter urging President Joe Biden to reverse the Trump administration’s terrorism designation for Cuba and to reinstate Obama-era policy for the island.\nThe international outcry against the U.S. intentional starvation blockade of Cuba is growing. These actions powerfully refute the U.S. claim that Marco Rubio\, Bob Menendez and Ted Cruz anti-Cuba campaign represents us.\nNow in their third year\, the public bike and car caravans that started in Miami and led by Cuban-Americans have broken up that myth. Watch this video\, produced by Cuban-Americans in Miami for the September 25 caravans (in Spanish with English subtitles).\nhttps://youtu.be/WNkUgppYJBE\n\n\nCar caravan details:\nSouth High School parking lot\, 3131 19th Ave So\, Minneapolis\n12:30: Volunteer car marshal training\n1:00: Line up and add signs and flags to cars at South High School parking lot\, 3131 19th Ave So\, Minneapolis. Signs and car flags will be available or bring your own. Caravan sponsors will make brief remarks.\n1:30: Caravan begins – left out of the parking lot on 21st Street\, left on Lake Street\, right on First Ave. South\, left through the Post Office parking lot\, left on Blaisdell and left on Lake back to South High.\n2:30: Brief closing rally at South High parking lot.\nThe lead car will be in contact with participating cars – details will be provided at the rally site.\nContact 612-437-0222 for more information or if you’re joining late.

SUMMARY:Sign our Petition for Cuba!
DESCRIPTION:Sign our Petition to Minnesota Senators to Remove Cuba from the State Sponsors of Terrorism list  \nContact Senator Amy Klobuchar and Senator Tina Smith via this petition to request they ask President Biden to remove Cuba from the U.S. State Sponsors of Terrorism list. \nAll you have to do is sign the petition!!         Deadline to sign on is March 15th! \nLink to petition:     https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/petition-minnesota-senators-to-remove-cuba-from-the-state-sponsors-of-terrorism-list?source=direct_link& \nOnce the petition is collected\, we will be emailing both Senators the list of petition signers. \nPETITION TEXT \nTo: Senator Amy Klobuchar and Senator Tina Smith \nFrom: [Your Name]  \nAs a constituent that lives in Minnesota\, I’m writing to ask for your support to remove Cuba from the U.S. State Sponsors of Terrorism list (SSOT). \nCuba was put on the U.S. State Sponsor of Terrorism List in the last days of Trump’s administration as a political move to please conservative Cuba-Americans and without justification. \nThe list has had devastating consequences for the Cuban economy and has hurt the well-being of the Cuban people. Presence on the list prevents U.S. businesses from engaging with Cuba and prevents needed medicines\, construction materials\, food and medicine from arriving. Removing Cuba from this list would be easy and help to relieve the humanitarian crisis with assistance\, promote tourism and build the economy. \nWith an Executive Order\, President Biden could remove Cuba from the list. I call on you to urge the President to remove Cuba from the state sponsored terrorism list (SSOT) \nInitiated by: Solidarity Committee on the Americas (SCOTA)\, a committee of Women Against Military Madness (WAMM) \nhttps://www.facebook.com/solidaritycommitteeontheamericas \nMinnesota Loves Cuba Month: \na Campaign to remove Cuba from the list of US State Sponsors on Terrorism \n  \nThanks to Witness for Peace Solidarity Collective for Sponsoring this petition. \n

SUMMARY:Bridge Vigil Focus: Take Cuba Off the Terrorist List
DESCRIPTION:Bridge Vigil Focus: Take Cuba Off the Terrorist List\nWednesday\, April 12\, 2023\, 5:00-6:00 pm\n\nLake Street-Marshall Bridge\n\n• Cuba is NOT threat to the U.S. national security:\n• Cuba poses no military threat to the United States. Cuba has never invaded another county\, nor has it been involved in any acts of terrorism against the United States. In fact\, Cuba has been an important mediator in resolving conflicts in the region (negotiating conflicts in Colombia).\n• Cuba continues to make international commitments to combat terrorism\, has ratified numerous international counterterrorism conventions\, and has signed a bilateral agreement with the United States on counterterrorism. Cuba has collaborated with the U.S. counter-drug traffic efforts\, interdicting narcotic shipments in the Caribbean\, and the United States Government publicly thanked Cuba for this cooperation. Cuba is a sponsor of the Colombian peace talks\, and the Cuban government is playing a constructive mediating role in these talks to end one of the region’s longest-standing conflicts.\n• Keeping Cuba on the SSOT list\, has led to greater suffering the Cuban people.\n• Banks\, financial institutions\, and international vendors ceased helping facilitate both regular trade and cooperation with faith groups seeking to provide humanitarian and development support to Cuba. As a result\, Cuba faces shortages of necessary items\, including a lack of access to clean water\, sanitation\, and hygiene articles\, and materials essential for public health\, such as medicines and medical devices.\n• Keeping Cuba on the State Sponsors of Terrorism list undermines the Biden administration’s stated foreign policy goals.\n\nSIGNS AND BANNERS WILL BE PROVIDED OR BRING YOUR OWN.\n\nSponsored by: Solidarity Committee Of The Americas\, MN Cuba Committee and Witness for Peace\nThe weekly vigil is sponsored by the WAMM End War Committee. Starting in 1999\, every Wednesday activists in the Twin Cities have gathered to stand in solidarity with all those affected by US militarism and to call for peace.

SUMMARY:Venezuela delegation report back
DESCRIPTION:Venezuela delegation report back \nMonday\, April 17\, 2023\, 7:00 pm\nMayday Books\, 301 Cedar Ave\, Minneapolis 55454 \nLIVESTREAM: Facebook\nHear from our special speakers\, Drake Myers and Andrew Josefchak from the Anti-War Committee (Twin Cities). They will be sharing their perspectives from their recent delegation to Venezuela!\n\nVenezuela has been in the cross-hairs of US imperialism for decades\, including harsh and severe sanctions and six coup attempts. The US has even outrageously kidnapped Venezuelan diplomat Alex Saab in Cape Verde. He is now held in a Miami jail for the “crime” of importing food past the US blockade. Nonetheless\, Venezuela has made great gains in making life better for the people as they build their Bolivarian revolution.\n\nSponsored by: Solidarity Committee on the Americas committee of Women Against Military Madness
