Second National Meeting of the U.S Network for Democracy in Brazil

Two hundred activists and academics meet on Saturday, December 1, 2018 at the Columbia Law School to form the National Network for Democracy in Brazil. According to James N. Green, professor of Brazilian history at Brown University and organizer of the event, “After a long day of discussions, we decided to form a decentralized, democratic and nonpartisan national network with three objectives: (1) Educate the U.S. public about the current situation in Brazil; (2) Defend progressive social, economic, political, and cultural advances in Brazil; (3) Support social movements, community organizations, NGOs, universities, and activists, etc., who will be vulnerable in this new political climate.”

On October 19th, 2019 we will once again meet to assess our past year of activities, as well as discuss the upcoming year's agenda. All who align themselves with our three objectives are welcome to attend.
