In the first few weeks of 2011, revolutions have swept across the Arab world, toppling dictators in Tunisia and Egypt, and threatening to topple one in Libya. Uprisings are also underway in Bahrain, Yemen, and elsewhere, as people all across the region - including in Saudi Arabia - stand up against tyranny and oppression.
Please join us for this special event to hear long-time anti-war and Palestine solidarity campaigner George Galloway talk about the current situation in the Arab world, and what we can do in Canada to support the Arab peoples' struggle for liberation.
A discussion period will follow Mr. Galloway's speech.

Women, Resistance and Revolution
Revolution is sweeping the Arab world. In Tunisia, Bahrain, Egypt and now Libya, women are playing a central role in these movements. In so doing they are defying stereotypes and inspiring struggles all over the world by showing the possibility of genuine women's liberation. At the same time, the government of Stephen Harper continues to attack women's rights here in Canada. Join the International Socialists for this one-day conference as we examine the roots of women's oppression, why it persists today and what can be done to fight it.
Saturday, March 19, 11:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.
