White Supremacy Complicates our Struggles for Environmental Justice

This article was sent along to us by one of our partners in New Mexico. This is not an isolated incident of racist violence. We found out upon arriving in Pensacola that one of the towns we drove through had a lynching very recently. Expect a more developed post on the “immigration reform” that Obama is spearheading. Rock throwing boys shot in Mexico from the US side of the border, National Guard being sent to Arizona to further militarize an already fortified border; these are scenes reminiscent of the Israel Apartheid wall, policy that stinks of Fascism. (And I wont delve now into how foreign policy/NAFTA brought all of this on in the first place…)

The world seems to be crumbling around us, but we have strength in numbers. We must remember that we are many, and the oppressors are few. Our strength, our spirit, our drive for collective liberation, for the protection of the earth and future generations; this will keep us fighting for a just and peaceful world. Love and solidarity to our brothers and sisters in the Southwest.
