 OSCAR PALMA\nJULY 19, 2024, 11:01 AM\n\nGuillermo Kane, now 42, was just 14 
 when he became a militant of Argentina’s Partido Obrero –a left-leaning 
 political party and member of a larger coalition representing the interests 
 of the working class in the regional legislature.\n\nHe was inspired by the 
 vision of a better, more just nation, and disillusioned by decades of 
 administrations that failed to deliver for the nation’s workers. Over the 
 past three decades, he’s worked with multiple worker’s movements and 
 helped organize in one of the poorest regions of Buenos Aires – La 
 Matanza. His work there has been with the Piquetero cause, a large movement 
 of unemployed citizens who took the streets during the country’s 2001 
 economic collapse.\n\nKane will speak at Medicine for Nightmares Bookstore 
 at 3036 24th St. between Treat Avenue and Harrison Street at 7 p.m. on 
 Saturday. — He is currently both a legislator at the regional parliament 
 representing Buenos Aires and a professor of history at the University of 
 Buenos Aires. He is also a vocal critic of new Argentinian President Javier 
 Milei, a militant libertarian bent on curbing public spending.\n\nMilei has 
 vowed to cut taxes, eliminate the country’s national bank and slash as 
 many as half of the country’s agencies. The new leader has drawn 
 comparisons to former U.S President Donald Trump. On multiple occasions, 
 Milei has declared his admiration for Trump as well as Brazilian former 
 president Jair Bolsonaro.\n\nMission Local logo, with blue and orange lines

 up\nKane sees Milei’s rise as dangerous and alarming.\n\n“He’s 
 definitely promoting himself as the best student of U.S imperialism,” 
 said Kane. “In Argentina, you could say our project 2025 started in 2024 
 with mass layoffs and wages being liquidated through inflation. He’s 
 offered himself as the United States’ political tool in the 
 region.”\n\nThe South American legislator is visiting San Francisco as 
 part of Laborfest 2024, a month-long festival featuring events promoting 
 workers’ rights. This year, organizers are celebrating the 90th 
 anniversary of the San Francisco general strike and the West Coast maritime 
 strike in 1934.\n\nKane will also promote his new book “La Crisis Del 
 Imperio Norteamericano de Trump a Biden” (The Crisis of Trump and 
 Biden’s American Empire) in a conversation where he will draw 
 similarities between Milei, Trump and current President Joe Biden.  
 “We’re trying to discuss some of the key strategic questions for a 
 revolutionary regroupment in the United States, and this book is an attempt 
 to to open up a debate with militants and activists in the United 
 States,” said Kane.\n\nMedicine for Nightmares bookstore is located at 
 3036 24th Street between Treat Avenue and Harrison Street. Guillermo 
 Kane’s talk will run from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.\n\n
