Evo in SA Today

Evo Morales visits South Africa today. Unfortunately we don’t know what time he is arriving. Otherwise we would have gone out to Johannesburg International Airport to meet him with our banners. At least we are happy that he is going to meet our leaders including SACP General Secretary Blade Nzimande and Deputy GS Jeremy Cronin. Our government consulted the people and then over-rode the people’s will in Merafong and Matatiele. The people are going to the Constitutional Court. See below concerning the fund-raising for this challenge. The YCL and SWAYOCO have issued a call to a press conference tomorrow about the wave of arrests of PUDEMO and SWAYOCO militants in Swaziland by the king’s political police.
