Kevin Zeese — Presente!
Kevin Zeese, co-director of Popular Resistance, passed away
early in the morning of Sept. 6, 2020.
Kevin was an active member of the UNAC Administrative Committee, playing
critical roles in numerous actions including our conference this spring, and
collaborations like the No Foreign Bases Coalition, the Hands Off Syria
Coalition, the Sanctions Kill Coalition and others. Last summer he helped initiated and lead the Embassy
Protection Collective who stayed to protect the Venezuelan Embassy in
Washington DC after the Venezuelan Ambassador was forced to leave.
Kevin Zeese meets with Venezuelan presdent Nicolas Maduro in March 2019
President Maduro retweeted a tweet from Venezuelan foreign
minister Jorge Arreaza, which said,"We deeply regret the unexpected
departure of our brother Kevin Zeese. A brave peace activist and human rights
defender,...One of the American heroes who defended our Embassy to the end. Our
condolences to his partner Margaret and all his family."

UNAC announces the formation of its new youth group
At UNAC's national conference in February, we voted to organize a youth wing of UNAC. Several young people representing a number of UNAC affiliated groups have been meeting and have voted to become, "UNAC Youth Against Empire." They will be organizing a Youth Against War webinar in October and we will send out information on the webinar in the near future. For youth interested in information on the new group, please send an email to UNACpeace@gmail.com |
