Provide concrete solidarity to and learn from national liberation struggles and social movements
The APH takes into account an international perspective in all of our community work and our political campaigns. This means that we analyze the wealth of our society as largely coming from the global unequal distribution of wealth and resources within, as well as between countries. We live in one of the wealthiest countries in the world, and this wealth has been built upon the colonization and theft of Indigenous lands in what is currently known as Canada, as well as Canadian corporate interests in the Third World. The working class and peasants create the world’s wealth the world over!
In order to address the global unequal distribution of illness and disease, we must seek economic justice internationally! Unjust trade, wars of aggression, and occupation are the gravest threats to health in the Third World. We must speak out against plunder and exploitation, and provide material and moral support to social movements where possible.
