"The struggle for democracy in Zimbabwe"
with special guest speaker:
Munyaradzi Gwisai
(former Movement for Democracy Change ( MDC) MP, deputy chairperson Zimbabwe
Social Forum and member of the National Co-ordinating Committee of the
International Socialist Organisation)

Mugabe's dictatorship has taken Zimbabwe to breaking point. Official
inflation is 1700 per cent. Skyrocketing food prices and high unemployment
coupled with vicious repression by the regime make life one big struggle to
survive for the majority of people.
Recent strikes sparked an intensification of Mugabe's crackdown on dissent

Munyaradzi Gwisai has been at the frontline of the struggle for the rights
of workers and the poor and has faced beatings and arrest by the regime's
security forces. He will speak on the democratic struggle in Zimbabwe and
where it is heading.
