SOAW 2021 Conference: Flowers of Resistance - Vigil & Litany

Zoom

This will be our 19th year performing as part of the School of the Americas Watch Vigil & Litany. This year's theme is Flowers of Resistance. Events are free, bilingual (Spanish and English, interpretation will be provided) and all are welcome to attend!

"Join SOAW on Saturday, November 6th for this year's Virtual Conference and Sunday, November 21st for the Annual Vigil!

On Saturday, November 6th, we will facilitate three virtual panels discussing the historic and current U.S.-sponsored militarization throughout the Americas, the Biden Administration's political strategies to address the root causes of mass migration, and the ongoing struggle of communities and movements to safeguard the dignity and autonomy of the Earth and all peoples within increasingly repressive and militarized nation-states.

On Sunday, November 21st we will honor the memory of political and social activists, compas, loved ones, and extended community members whose lives were cut short by state violence and who today serve as ancestors guiding us in our collective struggle for peace and justice. The Litany and Presentes will feature the beloved SOA Watch Musicians Collective.

The virtual events are free, bilingual (Spanish and English, interpretation will be provided) and all are welcome to attend! You will receive an email confirmation with all the links for the panels and the litany after registration. We look forward to sharing virtual space with you."
