How is UW responding to the recent injustices across the country and around the world? Today Allen Ruff talks with several UW-Madison activists Amal Ayesh, Tyriek Mack, and Jessica Franco Morales, members of a coalition-in-formation bringing together various national minorities on campus, including representatives of Justice for Palestine, the Black Student Union, and the Chicano/a org., MECHA.

Tonight the Wisconsin Union is hosting “In Solidarity: From Ferguson to Mexico to Palestine,” an event to kickoff a new coalition at UW-Madison. Keynote speakers include Palestinian activist Ahmed Hamad, Todd St. Hill – an organizer with We Charge Genocide’s Cop Watch program, and Kathy Villalon.
