4TV INTERVIEW WITH MEIZHU LUI
Meizhu Lui, founder and co-coordinator of the México Solidarity Project, appeared on 4TV’s Al Mediodía to discuss the project, how she came to socialism, and the importance of cross-border solidarity and the transformations happening in Mexico.
The Mexico Solidarity Project was launched in 2019 as an initiative of the US socialist organization, Liberation Road, and now brings together individuals and organizations in the US and Mexico which support Mexico’s social movements, its sovereignty, and its resistance to US domination.
Meizhu Lui is also a frequent contributor to the Mexico Solidarity Bulletin weekly newsletter, which we encourage everyone to subscribe to.
