Coup In Honduras, Thu * July 9 * 7pm


Coup and Resistance in Honduras

Thursday, July 9, 7pm

Media Education Foundation

60 Masonic Street, Northampton, MA

A little over a week ago, a military coup overthrew democratically-elected President Zelaya in Honduras. Since then the Honduran people have waged a heroic struggle for democracy in the face of severe repression, with teachers on strike, activists shutting down roads across the country, and protests continuing after military forces killed at least 2, wounded others and arrested 600 on Sunday.

Come to a meeting of the International Socialist Organization as we discuss the events surrounding the coup and what it means for those struggling for social justice in the United States.
