Sao Paulo: March 20. As all the others demonstrations over the world,
against imperialist occupation in Iraq, and militarization and
imperialist war. We think it is important, for us in Latin
America, to put this together with opposition to the Free Trade Area of
the Americas (FTAA). It is not the military war, but its goal:
the "economic ocupation". 10 a.m. Paulista Avenue.

TURKEY
(source Yildizonen of Global Peace and Justice Coalition)
In Turkey, simultaneous demonstrations will take place at 1 p.m.
on March 20 in Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Adana and Trabzon. No national
demo because local elections are taking place March 28.
Activists in Turkey are building for a major protest at the NATO Summit
in Istanbul on June 27-28. It will be attended by George W Bush and the
other NATO heads of state and will be referred to in the future either
as the Istanbul Summit which marked the decision to initiate NATOâ•#729;s
presence in the Middle East or, alternatively, as the Summit which
failed. The Global Peace and Justice Coalition has started a campaign
against the Summit, under the general title â•#731;Bush, Do Not Come,
We-Do- Not-Want-Youâ•#711;. We expose NATOâ•#729;s role as a tool of American
hegemony. We are planning to use the demonstrations on 20 March and then on
Mayday
to link together the issues of the occupation of Iraq and the NATO summit.
Finally, during the Summit itself, we are planning a demonstration and
a series of other anti-NATO events. The movement in Turkey is inviting
movements in NATO member countries to demonstrate and work vigorously
against the involvement of their governments in the Summit or send
delegations to Istanbul. For more information, write to

Lenin
Lenin destacó como político en un principio por sus escritos y más tarde como
jefe del partido bolchevique. Lideró a los bolcheviques en 1917 cuando éstos
arrebataron el poder al gobierno provisional que controló Rusia desde la caída
del zar. Como líder soviético, inició un lento proceso hacia el socialismo y
esperó a que se resolvieran los conflictos internos e internacionales antes de
poner en práctica medidas económicas revolucionarias. Lenin aparece aquí al
terminar un discurso pronunciado en 1919, que fue grabado en un gramófono: "Hoy,
los trabajadores que han sido leales a la causa zafándose del yugo del capital
pueden llamarse comunistas. Por todo el mundo crece la asociación de los
comunistas. El poder soviético ya ha triunfado en varios países. Pronto
presenciaremos la victoria del comunismo en todo el mundo; presenciaremos la
fundación de la República Federada Mundial de Soviets".
Mao Zedong
Mao Zedong dirigió el movimiento comunista chino en las décadas de 1930 y de
1940 y se convirtió en el máximo dirigente de su país en 1949. En el discurso
que pronunció en 1956 en el congreso de su partido habló sobre la necesidad de
esforzarse constantemente por conseguir el progreso: "Aunque hemos alcanzado
logros extraordinariamente importantes, no hay razón alguna para ser arrogantes.
La modestia hace avanzar; la arrogancia, retroceder. Debería recordar siempre
esta verdad".
Salvador Allende
Tras intentar la aplicación de una política socialista en Chile, Salvador
Allende, elegido presidente de la República en 1970, fue derrocado tres años más
tarde por un golpe de Estado militar. En esta grabación podemos escucharle en su
último mensaje radiofónico a la nación, pronunciando su premonitoria frase:
"pagaré con mi vida la lealtad del pueblo", instantes antes de que los golpistas
accedieran al palacio presidencial de la Moneda en el que se hallaba sitiado.
