Following that is a piece produced by Hank, 3CR Volunteer, musician, and staunch community member. It marks the 12th Anniversary of the death of Syrian anarchist Omar Aziz. Following the fall of the Assad regime on Dec 8th last year, the role of memory in collective and horizontal organising has never been more important, in the face of continued imperialist power struggles worldwide.We'll be sharing some resources for other historical and up-to-date issues in Syria and it's people at the end of the piece.
