Dec 3, 2025 - Lessons two years after the Indigo raids

When: Wednesday, December 3rd, 6pm
Where: It's OK* Studios• 468 Queen St W

Two years ago police raided the homes of the Indigo 11, attempting to scare all those organizing for a free Palestine. Two years later, we're still fighting and we've learned a lot along the way!

Join us for a night of festivities and reflection. First we'll have a roundtable to share what we've learned from these two years of struggle, and then we'll dance! All proceeds go to the Toronto Community Justice Fund, supporting all those arrested for Palestine solidarity activism.

The roundtable discussion will include lessons on the policing of protest, organizing amidst repression, and the struggle for a free Palestine. Then we'll hand the stage over to the DJs and dance the night away!

Dec 2, 2025 - PYM Course on Imperialism

When: December 2nd to 11th, 6:30pm

From December 2-11, PYM will host a hybrid course on US imperialism at the People's Forum. This course, America's Forever Wars in the Middle East, will equip participants with an essential understanding of US imperialism, Israel's role within it, and its consequences for working people in the US and around the world.

Over the course of 4 sessions, we will illuminate how it is the imperialist system, and not just the ideological positions of any one politician in office, that keeps America at war and invested in genocide and the destabilization of the Middle East.

Without understanding the imperialist system that underlies the ongoing drive for war, and that has attempted to destroy the Palestinian people and those who stand with them, we cannot understand how to confront it.

Dec 1, 2025 - Arms Embargo Now

When: December 1st, 6:30pm
Where: Toronto

Canada has long downplayed its role in arming Israel, claiming it only issues a limited number of export permits, permits the government now says it has suspended. But this report exposes a far deeper complicity: Canada is a critical enabler of the United States' billions of dollars in military aid and sales to Israel annually.

For the first time, this report exposes a pipeline of military goods flowing from Canada to Israel via the US, facilitated by a deadly loophole in Canadian law.

Sep 8, 2025 - Fighting To Win

When: Monday September 8th, 6pm

A Ten-Week Course for Union and Community Activists Facilitated by John Clarke, former organizer with the Ontario Coalition Against Poverty (OCAP).

Unions and social movements today are operating in a very challenging situation. There is great economic uncertainty, the worsening impact of climate change and a global situation marked by the growing threat of conflict and war. When workers strike or communities under attack take to the streets, it seems that victories are much much harder to win, and past gains more difficult to defend.

This course will grapple with these questions by looking at the forms of exploitation and oppression that exist in society and the means by which the power structure acts to limit and contain our struggles. The course will move towards a discussion of how our movements can overcome the factors that hold them back and to fight to win!
