 it.\n\nOrganize a forum or watch party and tune into the livestream! 
 Contact ANSWER to have your event listed on the website.\n\nFor the past 
 several months Venezuela has resisted the immense pressure by the Pentagon 
 and United States government led by Donald Trump. On January 23, 2019, Juan 
 Guaidó proclaimed himself the indefinite “interim president” of 
 Venezuela at the behest of United States Vice President Mike Pence. The 
 U.S. government has illegally threatened Venezuela with outright invasion, 
 funded right-wing paramilitaries, imposed sanctions and seized much of 
 Venezuela’s wealth. The people of Venezuela are suffering a prolonged 
 electricity blackout by U.S.-led sabotage, as Washington seeks to 
 destabilize the country for regime change.\n\nCountering the Pentagon’s 
 narrative in the U.S. media is the focus of this livestream by anti-war and 
 peace activists, and progressive journalists. Anti-war U.S. activists have 
 been mobilizing and holding protests, marches, direct actions and forums to 
 stop the U.S. war drive against Venezuela.\n\nOrganize a watch party of 
 your own, tune in, and if you can, please donate to support the anti-war 
 efforts now. https://www.answercoalition.org/sf_donate\n\nView webinar
