Movement for Justice in El Barrio at Occupy Wall St. (on occupied
indigenous land)
This Sunday, October 9th at 6 p.m., members of Movement for Justice in
El Barrio, an organization that is part of the Zapatista initiated The
Other Campaign have been invited and will participate in Occupy Wall
St. (on occupied indigenous land)
They will share a message written by the humble immigrant community of
East Harlem on their seven-year struggle for dignity and against
neoliberal displacement. In this message, they will speak on their
vision of the world, their analysis of the problems that besiege it,
and how they seek to change it. They will offer their grain of sand
and make echo the voice of all the dignified people who are struggling
to build a new world from below and to the left.
“For Movement for Justice in El Barrio, the struggle for justice means
fighting for the liberation of women, immigrants, lesbians, people of
color, gays and the transgender community. We all share a common enemy
and its called neoliberalism. Neoliberalism wishes to divide us and
keep us from combining our forces. We will defeat this by continuing
to unite our entire community until we achieve true liberation for
all.” -Words of Movement for Justice in El Barrio
