International Day of Action on Afghanistan
Hello, everyone. Writing to introduce the International Day of Action on Afghanistan that the Black Alliance for Peace Solidarity Network’s Afghanistan Committee has been busy organizing over the past several days.
May 1, 2021, is the deadline for the United States to pull troops out of Afghanistan, per the U.S.-Taliban agreement, also known as the Doha agreement. Will the Biden-Harris administration abide by the terms of this agreement brokered in 2020? Demand the United States end all involvement and pull its troops, so the Afghan people can determine their collective fate.
Join the International Day of Action on Afghanistan on Thursday, April 8, to raise the public’s awareness!
