Is Venezuela's Bolivarian revolution dangerous or inspiring? Worrisome or hopeful? Some college students from the United States will have a chance to find out for themselves this August, on a tour of Venezuela led by Lisa Sullivan of Venezuela and her daughter Maia Rodriguez, now a student at Earlham College in Indiana. There are still openings on the delegation, and interested students should quickly get in touch with Lisa Sullivan at lisavenezuela@gmail.com or Maia Rodriguez at rodrima@earlham.edu to enquire. This is a chance to experience history as it is made.
This exciting tour begins on August 1, 2007, and ends on August 11. The cost of the trip is $1200, including accomodations, meals, in-country transportation, reading material, and just about everything but airfare. I know that this will be a wonderful experience, since Lisa Sullivan led the Venezuela tour I went on last January and February. You are guaranteed to meet all kinds of great activists who lead a revolutionary life in an atmosphere where hope prevails. $1200 is a lot of money for most young people, but there is time to do some fund-raising among local supporters to help with the cost. Promise them a report-back when you return!
