Sanctions, Blockades and Coercive Economic Measures: Confronting U.S. Imperialism [Virtual]

Sponsored by the International People's Tribunal on US Imperialism.

The NLG was a co-sponsor of the International People's Tribunal on US Imperialism: Sanctions, Blockades, Coercive Economic Measures. Following the verdict of the tribunal -- and the US-backed genocide in Gaza -- it is more urgent than ever to put that verdict into practice through both litigation and a popular campaign. This major panel will discuss the effects of sanctions in Venezuela, Iran, Cuba, Palestine (with a particular focus on Gaza), Haiti, and nations around the world, as well as the resistance in these countries. It will also serve as a major launching and promotion point for the new campaign to involve Guild chapters, students, and a mass movement in confronting US imperialism through directly challenging sanctions and blockades.
