SUMMARY:BOOK LAUNCH | Tricontinental\, Havana 1966 with Vijay Prashad & Manolo De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Join editor Manolo De Los Santos in conversation with writer Vijay Prashad to shed light on the historic meeting between revolutionary movements from three continents that paved the way for international solidarity in the face of imperialism. Tricontinental\, Havana 1966: Speeches and Documents of the First Solidarity Conference of the Peoples for Africa\, Asia\, and Latin America brings together many of the monumental commitments that emerged from the conference\, including speeches\, resolutions\, and never-before-seen photos from this historic meeting. \nSixty years ago\, hundreds of revolutionary leaders—like Fidel Castro\, Amílcar Cabral\, and Salvador Allende—gathered in Havana\, Cuba. Hailing from eighty-two countries and representing national liberation movements\, communist parties\, and socialist states\, they all came with a singular objective: to build solidarity against US imperialism and its allies. \nRevolutionary forces were on the offensive: the Vietnamese were bravely fighting the US military\, South Africa was rising up against apartheid\, Palestine was resisting Zionist colonization\, among many other fronts of struggle. US imperialism\, on the defensive\, was wreaking havoc across the world—it became obvious that worldwide solidarity among revolutionary forces was a necessary step towards achieving total liberation. The Tricontinental was not only an acknowledgment of that fact\, but a promise to make that solidarity a material reality. Decades later\, US imperialism continues its assault on working and oppressed people across the world\, and this conference provides us a glimpse into what is necessary to build true liberation today.
