Debrief from Venezuela: World Social Alternative

Justine and Maira debrief the 2nd. Encounter for a World Social Alternative: From Bolívar to Chávez. At the time of recording, they had just wrapped up the two-day event and had yet to witness the Venezuelan presidential elections later that week. Their initial reactions to the two-day panel series lay out the context of the Venezuelan elections, why the country is in the crosshairs of neoliberal cooperate media, and how the Venezuelan people have risen to protect the Bolivarian Revolution. The first gathering of the World Social Alternative happened in April of 2024 in Caracas where they produced the document mentioned:  https://www.albatcp.org/en/acta/world-social-alternative/ You can watch the live streams with English interpretation by ALBA-TCP on Youtube:  Day 1- https://www.youtube.com/live/ojyREEBxMg4?si=Fnj-JwDT_MmylzH5 Day 2 - https://www.youtube.com/live/DKJKyrPGpvE?si=3dn8KPI1CSGIGm2q Justine on the panel Alternative for Peoples’ Rights and Reparations: https://youtu.be/4LPqDxATd_A?si=BxpEfnSyY_SbdiAx Read: Hyper-Imperialism: A Dangerous Decadent New Stage by Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research Watch the video edition on The Red Nation Podcast YouTube channel The Red Nation Podcast is sustained by comrades and supporters like you.
