  1. LASC at the Encuentro and the US Social Forum, June 2010. The Latin America Solidarity Coalition and SOA Watch wove these two events together.
  2. LASC at the SOA Vigil the weekend of November 18-21. Again, this fruitful partnership is developing a two-in-one conference. This is a call for all Latin America solidarity groups, whether or not currently members of the LASC, as well as all US community-based grassroots movements concerned with the increasing militarization of our culture, to attend a one-day organizers’ strategy conference on Thursday, November 18, in Columbus, GA, the day prior to SOA Watch’s annual vigil at the gates of Ft. Benning. We will strategize about building a movement to reverse US militarization of the Western Hemisphere.
  3. LASC V in Washington, DC, Spring 2011. To continue the November discussion and create a plan of action for changing US policy toward Latin America.
