Abstract
This article examines the solidarity politics of the Committee for Justice for Domingo and Viernes (CJDV), a legal defense committee organized in the wake of the June 1, 1981 political assassinations of two Filipinx-American trade unionists and solidarity activists, Silme Domingo and Gene Viernes. Specifically, I examine the ways CJDV activists consistently linked the tragic deaths Domingo and Viernes to a pattern of political repression faced by not only “anti-Marcos Filipinos,” but also Latin American, Haitian, and Palestinian solidarity activists in the U.S. In order to theorized this broader community of struggle, I develop the concept of “anti-imperialist diasporas.”
