[News] August 23, SF - History of the Chicano Moratorium Event

[Anti-Imperialist News]

*Remembering the Chicano Moratorium*

part of the *Spirit of Bandung* series sponsored by Third World 
Resistance and International League of People's Struggle

On August 29,1970, over 30,000 Chicanos marched in the streets of LA to 
call an end to war in Vietnam. They understood that Chicanos were 
fighting an imperialist war that did not benefit their people in any way 
and they could not take part in it while the same forces telling them to 
fight in Vietnam were also attacking their folks here at home. Today 
Chicanos still understand the need to stand against imperialist wars in 
in Palestine, the Philippines, Ayotzinapa, and Ferguson. During this 
powerful panel we will explore Xicana historical and current connections 
to Third World anti-imperialist struggles and how we can strengthen ties 
of solidarity that lead to collective liberation.

Speakers include: Gabriel Hernandez, Nancy Hernandez, Raquel Jimenez, 
and Prishny Murillo

Hosted by Xicano Moratorium Coalition
