About the Event

Democratic rights are under assault across the United States and internationally. In response to hundreds of protests and encampments on college campuses opposing the Gaza genocide, the Biden-Harris administration and every state government have carried out savage attacks on students, faculty and workers. Thousands have been arrested or brutalized, and a reign of terror imposed at what were once centers for free speech and protest.

On October 23, Joseph Kishore and Jerry White—the Socialist Equality Party's candidates in the US presidential election—and SEP National Committee members Eric London and Andy Thompson will advance a socialist strategy to stop the global attacks on democratic rights and put an end to imperialist war. Join and help build this meeting as widely as possible!
