Discussion: CUBA: Solidarity, challenges & renewal

Saturday 13 Nov, 2pm
Resistance Centre, 23 Abercrombie St, Chippendale. Dinner from 6pm.

For more than 50 years Cuba has been carrying out a socialist revolution. Cuba's tremendous humanity and internationalism has shown that Stalinist bureaucratic degeneration is not inevitable. Yet today Cuba faces arguably its biggest challenge - a severe economic crisis. This discussion will look at the context of the crisis, it's causes, and the measures being proposed by the Cuban government. Resistance Centre, 23 Abercrombie St, Chippendale.
