HUGO BLANCO talks on fighting for indigenous and land rights in Peru



HUGO BLANCO

Jeff Webber, author of books on indigenous struggles and the left in Latin America, and Terry Conway, Resistance Books

Tuesday 26 February, 7.30pm
Community Centre, 62 Marchmont Street, WC1N 1AB
(Kings Cross & Russell Sq tube)

Hugo Blanco has been described as the ‘Fidel Castro of the Andes’. Like Fidel and Che, Hugo Blanco was a charismatic revolutionary during the 1960s. His life of struggle for the Quechua and other indigenous peoples has been chronicled in these titles from Resistance Books. This meeting will be a unique opportunity to discuss contemporary revolutionary ecosocialism in movements of solidarity with the exploited and oppressed in Latin America and lessons for global left politics.
