DESCRIPTION:San Francisco PSL Forum & Discussion\n\nNATO's 60th Anniversary:  6 Decades 
 of Crimes\n\nIn April 1949, the foreign ministers of Belgium, Canada, 
 Denmark, Great Britain, France, Luxembourg, Italy, the Netherlands, 
 Portugal, Norway and the U.S. formally signed the North Atlantic Treaty to 
 "defend" themselves against communism and the Soviet Union. In response to 
 NATO, the "Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation and Mutual Assistance", 
 otherwise known as the "Warsaw Pact" was formed in Eastern Europe. After 
 the Cold War ended, NATO claimed it acted as "peacekeepers" in Yugoslavia, 
 "provided security" in Afghanistan and "trained" soldiers in Iraq.  Come 
 for a talk and discussion on how and why NATO was formed, who it really 
 protects and how its role changed after the dissolution of the Soviet 
 Union.\n\n______________________________'\nMumia Abu-Jamal: Update on his 
 case \n\nOn Monday, April 6, the United States Supreme Court denied an 
 appeal from the journalist, political activist and death row political 
 prisoner Mumia Abu-Jamal. Jamal is appealing his conviction for the 1981 
 killing of a white police officer following a "trial" before a 
 predominantly white jury under a notoriously racist judge. What does this 
 latest development mean in terms of fighting for his 
 freedom?\n\n______________________________\nCuba: End of the embargo? \n\n 
 At the recently concluded summit of the Americas held in Trinidad and 
 Tobago, Obama said he wanted to "recast" relations with Socialist Cuba.  
 What would that look like?  Join us for an update on the latest 
 developments in US-Latin American relations.\n\n\n
