With the upcoming NATO summit looming over Chicago, it’s time to know
some background about both NATO and the G8, the global enforcers of the 1

This teach-in will cover a short history
of both NATO and G8, what they’ve done and do in the world, and how
their decisions—made by largely unaccountable and unelected people at
big summits—shape the lives of the global 99 percent. The immense
resources they’ve commanded throughout the last several decades have
largely created the world we now inhabit, and understanding these
processes—both economic and political— and why we should all go to Chicago and p<span style></span>rotest them in May,
is the main objective of this meeting.</span> Join us!
