DESCRIPTION:Dara’a is an epicenter of the Putin-Trump led march toward global 
 fascism. Dara’a is the southern Syrian region that initiated the 2011 
 Arab Spring inspired, democratic, peaceful revolution against the fascist 
 (“national socialist”) Assad regime. Once again Russian bombs rain down 
 and, with the help of Assad’s army and Iranian militia, usher in a total 
 reign of terror on the civilian population. This human catastrophe created 
 additional 300,000 refugees after over 400,000 Syrians have been killed. 
 The cabal creates these refugees only to designate them as a 
 less-than-human “infestation.”\nNot since WWII have we faced such an 
 abyss. How can one retain one’s humanity in these times?\n\nFrom Yassin 
 al-Haj Saleh's Impossible Revolution:\nMy impression about this curious 
 situation is that they simply do not see us; it is not about us at all. 
 Syria is only an additional occasion for their old anti-imperialist 
 tirades, never the living subject of the debate ... We, rank-and-file 
 Syrians, refugees, women, students, intellectuals, human rights activists, 
 political prisoners ... do not exist ... But honestly I’ve failed to 
 discern who is right and who is left in the West from a leftist Syrian 
 point of view ... Before helping Syrians or showing solidarity with 
 Syrians, the mainstream Western left need to help themselves.\n\nWhere: 
 Niebyl-Proctor Library, 6501 Telegraph Ave., Oakland\nWhen: Sunday, July 
 29,    6:30 - 8:30 pm\n\n
