Drs. Rabab Abdulhadi (San Francisco State) and Salman Sayyid (Leeds), join Adnan to discuss the geopolitically important Afro-Asian Conference of 1955, seventy years ago, that brought leaders of states newly freed from colonial rule together to advocate an agenda of peace and development that would give rise to the Non-Aligned Movement, the Tri-Continental and UNCTAD. Our panel engages in a critical discussion of that history and its relevance today for people's movements not only across the Global South but globally.
