Venezuela Embassy Protectors
to Speak in Berkeley, CA on Wed. Oct 16

Come hear Kevin Zeese, Margaret Flowers and David Paul who each face one-year prison sentences and $100,000 fines based on the spurious charge of "interfering with government operations."
 
These courageous Embassy Protectors defended the Washington, D.C. Venezuelan Embassy for 34 days at the request of the Venezuelan government and its only legitimate President Nicolas Maduro.
 
 
They will be speaking about their experience that included having to defend themselves and the embassy against violent well financed right wing Venezuelans living in the US and the complicity of Federal Police. 
 
The three will also give an update on the details of their case and the struggle against the US imperialist drive to economically strangle the Bolivarian Revolution and its social gains.
