Event: From Tahrir to Occupy

From Tahrir to Occupy
This is what a revolution looks like


Within the Occupy Movement, one word has been repeated again and again by activists: REVOLUTION!

Active for almost 3 months, the movement started out demanding accountability from the 1%, but it has turned into something larger. From Wall Street to Portland and everywhere in between citizens are turning out to demand change, true democracy and the freedom to control their lives.

Not unlike our brothers and sisters in Egypt, we are fighting against a system that has shown itself to be repressive and anti-democratic. We are finding out more and more, with the police raids on encampments in Denver, Oakland, New York and beyond, that the 1% are afraid of the 99% getting organized.

Join the Cincinnati International Socialist Organization as we talk about how this movement is different than any we’ve seen in America before, and how it has the makings of something truly revolutionary.

Friday December 2nd, 7:30 PM, University of Cincinnati - 256 McMicken Hall
