Guatemala Declaration 2

Estimadas compañeras de la MMM en Washington, reciban nuestros saludos y energía desde Guatemala, territorio que históricamente ha sido objeto de vejámenes por parte de gobiernos y poderes económicos estadounidenses.

Hoy frente a este nuevo momento en que se recrudecen las condiciones de exclusión y discriminación a partir de que el presidente recién electo en su país ha abierto las posibilidades de que la institucionalidad y la sociedad demuestre su sentir más perverso e individualista, queremos enviarles nuestra energía y fuerza de resistencia desde nuestros pueblos.

World March of Women Statements

World March of Women members from around the world were out on the streets in solidarity with us in the United States on January 21, 2017 as part of the Women’s March on Washington. As we are dealing with the repercussions of Trump’s administration on our communities, it is important to note that many countries around the world have also faced the rise of a reactionary right-wing governments, impacting women and people of color in particular.

Call 3: Lessons from International Resistances to Right-Wing Regimes

On January 10th, we held our third and last call in the post-elections series, on Lessons from International Resistances to Right Wing Regimes. With the global phenomenon of the shift to the right, we know that in the US we are not facing nationalism, fear, anti-immigrant sentiments, or neoliberalism alone. In fact, our international allies have been struggling with these for longer than we have, and have lots that we could draw from. We had an incredible panel of speakers who shared with us the political context of their countries, and lessons for us to learn from.

"It Takes Roots to Grow the Resistance" Delegation to DC 2017

[español abajo]

Every day the landscape continues to change on a national level. The appointments Trump has made for his administration are clearly an assault on all the gains that people of color, women, immigrants, LGBTQ communities, and workers have fought for. This will have implications locally, nationally, and globally for years to come. Now is the critical time for a resistance movement to be visible and strong, on the defense and the offense.
