[act-ma] Update: Egypt Teach-In THIS Thurs 2/17, 7pm @ PCCP!

[Brian K]

Hey folks,

Mubarak's downfall is a *major victory* for the Egyptian people, and all of
us who have been fighting along side them in Tunisia, Algeria, Jordan,
Yemen, Sudan, Bahrain, the US, UK, and elsewhere.

At the same time, bringing down the dictator was relatively easy compared to
the question of *what comes next?* With Mubarak gone, will there be only
surface changes, or a more fundamental change to the system? What will be
the fate of the ripple effect throughout the region? And what is our role in
the US?

In short, a teach-in on the sea-change in Middle East Politics that has been
ignited is now perhaps *MORE relevant *than ever before because of the
complexity of the questions it now poses.

Please forward the updated announcement below once more to your lists, even
if you've done so already.

Thanks and solidarity,
Brian Kwoba
