Public Analysis Session of the Alianza Americas’ 2020 National Leadership Assembly: Power and Solidarity for Transformation, that took place on October 23, 2020.
Since April 2020, mobilizations against police violence and racial and economic oppression in the U.S. have been echoed worldwide. In the public debate around the fight against white supremacy, there is little discussion of the influence of the European colonization in the Americas and in the people of Latin American origin. In this critical session, panelists addressed the intersection between the past and current struggles for racial justice and equality, considering potential collective responses both in the U.S. as well as in Latin America.
