Lessons for U.S. Cities from the Military Occupation of South Africa / Azania

A timely conversation as we prepare to deal with MAGA's threats to occupy and subdue Black-led cities throughout the U.S. empire. Part of a discussion series with activists from around the world that have confronted hostile military occupations of their cities and towns from settler-colonial regimes and right wing dictatorships.

How can we apply lessons from the brutal struggle to defeat apartheid in South Afrika to the U.S., right here right now? The increased violence and potential privatization of state and federal law enforcement agencies and their focus on U.S. regular folks?
