by Mobilization for Global Justice 11:14am Fri Feb 22 '02 (Modified on 12:14pm Fri Feb 22 '02)
The last meeting of the Mobilization for Global Justice consensed to plan a mobilization against the spring meetings of the IMF and World Bank. The message below is meant to serve as an initial call to action, whose message and action details we intend to develop further. In the meantime, please forward widely to get the word out about this important action!
On April 20-21, the World Bank and IMF will hold another round of meetings at their headquarters in Washington, DC. These meetings come in the wake of the economic crisis in Argentina, where the free-market policies pushed around the world by the World Bank and IMF unravelled, destroying the livelihoods of much of the population. They also come after the collapse of the multinational giant Enron which has served as a magnifying glass for the strength of corporate power and crookedness in the United States, the country which serves as both model and sponsor for the agenda of corporate globalization. The Moblilization for Global Justice calls on activists from around the country to assemble in Washington, DC on the weekend of April 19-22 for a protest against the World Bank and IMF. Now is the time to show that there is an alternative to a world of poverty and nstability. The movement for global justice is alive and well.
That weekend, several other protests against different forms of U.S. militarism will take place: Plan Colombia, The School of the Americas, The War on Terrorism. The Moblilization for Global Justice would like to endorse the idea that these are part of the same fight for global justice. The military arms of U.S. domination abroad work hand in hand with economic institutions like the world bank and IMF. The privatizations, forced relocations and economic austerity measures pushed by the World Bank and IMF never happen without resistance and military force is repeatedly the antidote chosen by those with a stake in these programs. MGJ encourages all those who come out to protest the Bank and IMF to also attend these events.
So mark your calanders for the weekend of April 19-22. For activists in the DC area who want to take part in the organizing of this event, a general MGJ organizing meeting will be held on Wednesday, February 2! 7th at St. Stephen's Church on 15th and Newton in which new working groups will be formed. We will need as many people as possible to take part in outreach, media, logistics and more.
