EMBARGOES]

*UMass Amherst History Department Feinberg Series*

On the eve of International Women's Day, this panel of Latin American
feminists will discuss the relationship between patriarchy and U.S.
imperialism, specifically the fatal impacts of U.S. sanctions against the
Cuban and Venezuelan people. U.S. sanctions against Cuba have been in place
since 1962, while as of 2019, U.S. sanctions against Venezuela have killed
over 40,000 people. The consequences of these policies for women and Black
people will be emphasized. Panelists will explore how revolutionary
feminists are building small- and large-scale economic alternatives, from
workers’ councils to communes.

*Tuesday, March 7, 7pm EST, Zoom*


Free and open to all. A public Q&A will follow. This event will be in
Spanish and English with simultaneous interpretation in both English and
Spanish, and English closed captions. This event will be recorded and made
available on the Feinberg Series website.
