In late 2006 Nancy Romer met in Bolivia with activists in the landless peasants movement, leaders of the water and gas “wars,” student activists, and faculty and professional staff unionists at the large public universitites. In this talk she will discuss the ways in which the workers and traditional left unite with the indigenous movements to share a political agenda, strategy, and tactics. She will also address the implications of Bolivian developments for a left coalition in Latin America.
Nancy Romer is Professor of Psychology and Director of the Brooklyn College Community Partnership, and University-Wide Officer of the Professional Staff Congress of CUNY (AFT local 2334).
