The Forum of Resistance schedule is as follows.

1. Bush's War; The Fall of the US Empire?
George Bush represents the greatest threat to world peace. Not only has he destroyed Iraq but he also wants to start a new war with Iran.
But Bush is only a front man for corporate capitalism.
Behind the new drive to war, a system is spinning out of control.
At this session we look at the link between capitalism and war.

Speaker, Sinead Kennedy.

2. Selling our Bodies; Capitalism and the New Sexism.
Everything is for sale in this market made world. Our bodies are no exception.
The increased presence of Brats and Playboy brands are pushing sexism to younger and younger audiences.
This session discusses how we can fight the New Sexism while also fighting for liberation and sexual equality.

Speaker, Crea Ryder.

3. Hugo Chavez, 40 years after the death of Che Guevara, Revolution in the 21st Century.
Forty years ago, Che Guevara was assassinated in Bolivia as the US took their revenge on one of their great opponents.
But today Latin America has become the centre of a struggle against corporate globalisation and the US Empire.
In this session we look at some of the lessons of one of the most exciting conflicts in the region, the progress of Venezuela.
Speaker, Kieran Allen.
