This is the moment: white rage, homophobia and islamophobia are growing stronger. We cannot let this moment divide us, or let the right pit us against each other. This moment calls for us to show up even stronger and more unified.

Nao Al Golpe! No to the Coup in Brazil!
Posted on Fri, 05/20/2016 - 5:45pm
“The coup is not only against the Dilma government, but against the majority of the Brazilian people. The coup may intensify the withdrawal of the historically won rights and start a conservative and fascist process against the poor, Black communities, Indigenous Peoples, the landless, LGBT community members, youth and women. So for that reason we are on the frontline against this process and at the same time, the struggle for land, for agrarian reform, and the structural reforms that will benefit the people.”
