Alright everyone its training time!! Legal training is an important component of preparing to take our struggles to the street. The Mobilization for Global Justice and the Justice and Solidarity Collective are providing trainings so that everyone, each individual or an appointed legal person from your affinity group, can be prepared to take care of themselves and their loved ones while out on April 16th.
