All the event coordination, cultural work, and community organizing experience I cultivated in the Bay is sure coming in handy as we count down the days til this weekend’s conference in Toronto. After several months of conference calls and group emails (including me almost backing out a couple times), to finally be at this point of such a huge undertaking—involving people from different parts of the world, a vast spectrum of organizing styles, and all kinds of logistics—is a testament to the dedication that these folks have to building a global anti-imperialist movement. Looking forward to being on the periphery running around with my head cut off, knowing that some historic, revolutionary work is being done in those lecture halls and conference rooms. See y’all in Toronto!
