Zimbabwe Votes 2008

With the upcoming June 27, 2008 presidential run-off in Zimbabwe, state-sponsored violence continues to rise, leaving more than 50 deaths and more than 2,000 victims of violence and torture in its wake. Please join us for a review of the political situation in Zimbabwe prior to the run-off election and a discussion on possible outcomes and ways for the international community to support a free, fair, and peaceful run-off election in Zimbabwe. A representative of the Zimbabwean diaspora in South Africa engaged in organizing the Get Out the Vote campaign will show a 10-minute documentary about efforts to mobilize voters among the 1.5 million Zimbabwean diaspora members in South Africa and answer questions about the election process.
