Srđa Popović “How to Teach the Revolution?”

How do you become a revolutionary? Is there a school where you can learn tactics for progressive action and effective resistance?

As a matter of fact, there is! It is called the Center for Applied Nonviolent Action and Strategies (CANVAS) and was founded in Belgrade by Srđa Popović, a youth activist who helped topple Slobodan Milošević in 2000. Drawing on this experience, Popović seeks to educate pro-democracy activists around the world in progressive non-violent resistance. He will speak with Metropole’s Margaret Childs about his fascinating work in such countries as Burma, Egypt, Georgia, Iran, Tunisia, Venezuela, and Zimbabwe.
