Summary

Justine and Maira debrief the 2nd. Encounter for a World Social Alternative: From Bolívar to Chávez. At the time of recording, they had just wrapped up the two-day event and had yet to witness the Venezuelan presidential elections later that week. Their initial reactions to the two-day panel series lay out the context of the Venezuelan elections, why the country is in the crosshairs of neoliberal cooperate media, and how the Venezuelan people have risen to protect the Bolivarian Revolution.

The first gathering of the World Social Alternative happened in April of 2024 in Caracas where they produced the document mentioned:
