Minneapolis, MN – More than 50 people came together here March 8 to celebrate International Women’s Day. The event was sponsored by Freedom Road Socialist Organization and featured women who are in the forefront of the fight against repression and reaction.

Speakers included Jess Sundin, a leader of the Anti-War Committee and Freedom Road Socialist Organization and one of the anti-war and international solidarity activists targeted by the FBI and grand jury; Sarah Jane Olson, former political prisoner from involvement with revolutionary movements in the 1970s; Tracy Molm, an organizer with Students for a Democratic Society at the University of Minnesota, also one of the activists targeted by the FBI and grand jury; and Luce Guillen Givins of the RNC 8, unjustly charged with felonies for protests at the Republican National Convention, 2008.
