A discussion on the importance of revolutionary internationalism, especially for the future of the radically democratic, ecological and socialist women's revolution in North-East Syria will take place in London on 28 February.

Form 7-9 pm at the Halk Evi, People’s House (31-33 Dalston Lane, E8 3DF London, United Kingdom) Veteran Peruvian activist Hugo Blanco will join ex-internationalist volunteers of the People's and Women's Protection Units (YPG/YPJ).

Veteran Peruvian activist Hugo Blanco's life of eco-socialist struggle for the Quechua and other indigenous peoples around the world has been chronicled in Derek Wall's new book Hugo Blanco: A Revolutionary for Life (Merlin Press and Resistance Books).

Blanco, described as the 'Fidel Castro of the Andes', will be speaking at a series of events in Britain in late February.

This meeting will be a unique opportunity to discuss contemporary eco-socialist struggles with Hugo Blanco and veteran internationalists, said the organisers of the event in Halk Evi, adding that among the issues addressed will be how to build practical solidarity movements with the exploited and oppressed from Latin America to the Middle East, and the lessons for global left politics.
