While Montreal’s student strike intensifies further around Quebec’s September 4 election, U.S. students are initiating a multitude of campaigns around debt, immigration, and other issues. Students will be learning from Montreal activists and discussing strategies for debt campaigns at the Student Power Convergence in Columbus, OH on August 10—14 2012. At a Sunday “Strike Debt” assembly in New York City, David Graeber, Professor of Social Anthropology at University of London and author of the book “Debt: The First 5000 Years” gives his take on the prospects of a U.S. student debt campaign.
