How do capitalism, colonialism and imperialism link seemingly disparate wars and genocides? What forms of resistance and organizing are we witnessing against militarized state violence in Sudan and beyond? What lessons can students in particular draw from these forms of resistance as they mobilize against fascist forces at home and organize in solidarity with movements and communities elsewhere? What can transnational solidarity look like beyond and against a reliance or reification of nation states and state power?
