<p><b><big></big></b>April 30, 2015 marks the 40th anniversary of
the victory of the people of Viet Nam over the US military. The
Vietnamese national liberation struggle moved the entire world and
is one of the most important historical events of the 20th
century. </p>
<p>The people’s war waged by the people of Viet Nam, reaching a peak
in the Tet Offensive of 1968, demonstrated that a united people,
even in a poor and underdeveloped nation, could defeat the most
powerful military and economic power on earth. </p>
<p>In an era when national liberation struggles surged in Asia,
Africa, and Latin America, the struggle of the Vietnamese people
provided an inspiring example to solidarity movements around the
world and inside the US. The movement against the war in Viet Nam
in the US was inextricably tied to the early anti-imperialism of
the civil rights/Black liberation movement, and many other
movements of the 1960s and 1970s. </p>
<p>The victory of Viet Nam is a living example<strong> </strong>that
holds lessons for the ongoing struggle against US imperialism
today. We have created this <b><big><a

tribute</a>,</big></b> much of it drawn from the Freedom
Archives, to help illustrate and pass on these lessons.<br>
