Aflevering 33 - Taking The Imperialists To Court

*-*-* Coni Ledesma interview! *-*-* Even though imperialist and capitalist states love to brand resistance organizations as 'terrorist' and persecute them, we can also reverse the roles. The people's resistance movement is taking the Filipino government and the US imperialist to court. Not the ICJ or ICC, but a court created by the people's movement itself and its international allies, called the International People's Tribunal. At the IPT the violations of international humanitarian law by the Filipino government will be exposed. It will be held on May 17th and 18th, somewhere in Europe. You are welcome to join! In this episode we are talking with Coni Ledesma, lifelong revolutionary, and a member on the peace negotiation panel for the National Democratic Front of the Philippines. Because it’s important to realize that the terror tagging has a political function, and rarely has got anything to do with the true reality on the ground, this episode is painting a picture of a life dedicated to the struggle for justice, equality, and liberation. From Palestine to the Philippines, wherever US imperialists are dictating the political and economical situation, we should be there side by side with the struggling people for justice and liberation. -------------- Mentioned in the episode: ?
