Dear Marchers,
We invite you to join us in Washington, DC for the Conference on removing the TPLF dictatorial regime, establishing democratic and just system in Ethiopia. The conference is organized by March 4 Freedom and expected provide a unique opportunity to all Ethiopians.
What lessons have we learned from the Middle East and North African (MENA) people-powered movements to free their country of despotic rule? What are the conditions Ethiopia has in common with the MENA dictatorships, and what are our country’s peculiar aspects? How can the various political and civic organizations, public institutions, and pro-democracy individuals channel their efforts and constitute a concerted and effective power that could achieve the goal: toppling the Meles Zenawi dictatorship similar to the successful people-powered removal of Egypt’s dictator Mubarak and Tunisia’s dictator Ben Ali? The conference will address these and other issues and factors that could transform the Ethiopian people’s struggle to a successful Ethiopian Spring.
Renowned and well regarded Ethiopian and international pro-democracy experts, scholars, and activists will be speaking at the conference and holding an open discussion with the public on the topic.

We look forward to seeing you in Washington, DC.
