DESCRIPTION:On the 2nd Anniversary of Hugo Chávez's death, we celebrate his legacy, 
 embodied in the people and their struggle.\n\nOn Feb. 12, President 
 Nicolás Maduro announced that a right-wing coup was thwarted by the 
 revolutionary government. The U.S. and Venezuelan rightwing continue to try 
 to overthrow the Venezuelan government. It is urgent that we organize in 
 the United States to defend Venezuela's sovereignty.\n\nMarch 5 is the 
 second anniversary of the tragic passing of President Hugo Chávez of 
 Venezuela. Yet, despite his short life, he transformed Venezuela by his 
 courageous struggle to make the Venezuelan masses the protagonists of their 
 destiny.\n\nBefore Chávez, Venezuela's natural resources enriched only the 
 oil companies and ruling class. Today the country's wealth has been 
 harnessed for true development -- hundreds of thousands of homes, 
 healthcare and schools throughout the country.\n\nThe goal of the 
 Bolivarian Revolutionary process is socialism, where every human being can 
 enjoy guaranteed rights of healthcare, education, housing, jobs, equality, 
 culture, social peace, and international solidarity.\n\nBut the U.S. 
 government is working to destabilize the Venezuelan revolutionary 
 government, financing right-wing organizations, encouraging coup attempts 
 and terrorist attacks on the population. Now, the U.S. Congress is applying 
 sanctions on Venezuela to punish the government and people for defending 
 their sovereignty.\n\nIt is up to us, the people of the United States, to 
 demand that our government stop the attacks and destabilization of 
 Venezuela, respect International Law and Venezuela's right to live.\n\nJoin 
 us on Thursday, March 5, 5 pm, 24th and Mission, S.F., for a rally to say: 
 "U.S. Hands Off Venezuela! Chavez Vive! La Lucha Sigue!"\n\nSponsored by 
 Bay Area Latin America Solidarity Coalition. Endorsed by ANSWER Coalition, 
 SOA Watch-San Francisco; FMLN-Nor. California; FSLN-Nor. California; Haiti 
 Action Committee; Hondurenos en Resistencia del Norte de California; Task 
 Force on the Americas; Nicaragua Center for Community Action; Party for 
 Socialism and Liberation; Workers World Party; Marcha Patriotica of Nor. 
 Cal.\n\nThis demonstration is part of nationally-coordinated actions 
 against U.S. aggression in Venezuela\n\nShare the Facebook Event
