The ongoing financial crisis has made the future shape of capitalism uncertain. As politicians around the world seek to save capitalist economies (and the wealth of the rich), what can anarchists and everyone else not satisfied with bailouts for corporations do? What are the roots of this crisis and who will it really hurt? What are the political possibilities and risks?

BACKGROUND
Israeli Apartheid Week (IAW) is taking place in more than 40 cities across the globe (the number of cities is growing daily). This year, IAW happens in the wake of Israel's barbaric assault on the people of Gaza. In Toronto, the birthplace of IAW, a full week of lectures, films, and actions will make the point that these latest massacres further confirm the true nature of Israeli Apartheid. The theme for IAW 2009 in Toronto is “Standing United with the People of Gaza”, events will take place at the University of Toronto, Ryerson University and York University. IAW 2009 will continue to build and strengthen the growing Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement at a global level.
