SF Solidarity With Quebec!
Occupy Education!
Striking students in Quebec are setting an example for youth and all of us across the
continent to take a stand against tuition hikes and austerity (take from the 99%--give to
the 1%). The student strike was organized in a highly democratic way and aims to practice
real democracy. When pushing back, students and allies have been met with repression,
including violence, mass arrests, media smears and the anti-protest Bill 87, which
severely limits free speech and assembly.
Quebec's struggle is our struggle; we too face tuition hikes, education cuts and
massive student debt. Stand in solidarity with our brothers and sisters in Quebec; be part
of the growing global movement of resistance to the rule, auterityty and corruption of the
1%.
