Kitchener, ON - IT IS RIGHT TO RESIST
Date: September 11
Time: 12-2pm EST
Location: 63 Courtland
With the attempts to criminalize dissent at the g20 and after, there
is a fear in the activist community to take a stand and organize on
the basis of inclusive principles such as diversity of tactics, or to
have a radical analysis that is critical of the state. The purpose of
this conference is to combat this by inviting ALL organizations and
peoples interested in social justice to come discuss the work that we
are doing in our communities and come up with ways to assist each
other. ALL WELCOME

The G8/G20 meetings took place in Ontario from June 25-27, 2010. Toronto-based organizations of women, people of colour, indigenous peoples, the poor, the working class, queer and trans people and disabled people organized a peoples convergence with 40,000 people taking to the streets, standing up for justice in collaboration and solidarity!
Activists, community members, inspired and outraged individuals came together as a movement to demand justice for people and the planet. Over a week of mobilizations, events, workshops and direct actions took place in the face of state and police repression, violence and infringements on rights and freedoms.
We must continue to mobilize and build greater solidarity among our communities- an important part of this is supporting all those arrested during the G20 summit, including our allies still in detention, and those released on bail.
