SUMMARY:Bosnia and “Humanitarian Intervention”: The First US/NATO War\, a talk by Michael Livingston
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, December 2\, 2023\, 3:00 pm\, May Day Books – 301 Cedar Ave South\, Minneapolis \nWhile the most recent US/NATO war is fought in Ukraine\, the brutal civil war that ripped apart Bosnia from 1992 to 1995\, ended in the first US/NATO war\, part of a larger dismemberment of Yugoslavia by the US and its key capitalist allies in Europe. NATO’s involvement was purportedly based on the need for humanitarian intervention. \nThis talk explores the background of the war in Bosnia\, and how the destruction of Yugoslavia was created by the Western powers\, the same Western powers who then justified intervention on humanitarian grounds: the need to stop the killing that they themselves had started and fueled. \nBased on the speaker’s research during a 2023 study inside Bosnia\, the talk focuses on current conditions in Bosnia\, the causes and development of the civil war\, and the destruction of the former Yugoslavia\, as well as the education system of Bosnia (the “two schools under one roof” system of segregated education)\, the language divorce (the efforts to create separate languages out of a single language)\, and the state of post-civil war society. \nSponsored by May Day Books. Endorsed by Vets for Peace Chapter 27 and Women Against Military Madness (WAMM) End War committee. \nAbout the Speaker: Michael Livingston has been active in the Peace and Antiwar Movement for over 40 years\, first becoming active in the Central American Movement of the 1980s. He is currently a professor of psychology and holds a Ph.D. in Child Psychology. FFI: email mlivingston@csbsju.edu or call 612.619.7817

SUMMARY:Bannering: Take Cuba off the U. S. State Sponsors of Terrorism List!
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, December 14\, 2023\, 3:30 pm\, corner of Lake St and Chicago Ave\, Mpls \nLocation on the corner of Lake Street and Chicago Avenue\, Minneapolis.Date and Time: Thursday\, December 14th starting 3:30 pm\nEvent initiated by: Solidarity Committee on the Americas and the MN Cuba Committee\n\n\nJoin the Solidarity Committee on the Americas and the MN Cuba Committee with signs and banners to:\nRemove Cuba from the listof the US State Sponsors of Terrorism\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.\nWe are committed to supporting 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 for us to take action against Cuba being on the US State Sponsor of Terrorism list.\nNine days before leaving office\, Trump designated Cuba a State Sponsor of Terrorism. Since 2021\, Biden has kept Cuba on the terrorism list. 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.\n\nCUBA OFF U.S. TERRORISM LIST!\nEND THE BLOCKADE OF CUBA
