No New Cold War with Russia
No U.S. Support for Fascist Atrocities in Ukraine
We Need Funds for Healthcare, Housing, Jobs and Schools, Not for War

Thursday, May 22nd
7:00 p.m.

This teach-in has been called to respond to developments in Ukraine in the past weeks: in Odessa, the deaths of 46 people and burning of the House of Labor at the hands of fascists; the attacks on cities in east and southeast Ukraine by army and fascist militia attacks; and the growing moves by the US and NATO in Ukraine and threatening a new war with Russia.
