Help! us bring 20 exemplary women, social strugglers from Mexico and the world to Chiapas, southern Mexico! The América del Valle Caravan is seeking help to carryout this historic delegation to the third Gathering of Zapatista Communities with the Peoples of the World “Comandanta Ramona”, with the expressed central theme being women, which will be held the 29th, 30th, and 31st of December, in the autonomous municipal Caracol of the La Garrucha.

Women and men from various collectives and groups from Mexico City and Oaxaca have come together to organize to guarantee the transportation and accommodation for 20 women from different parts of the Mexico and the world. The women invited on this caravan are women that represent geographical regions or sectors of society with defined objectives, such as in the case of the women from Oaxaca, which many represent indigenous communities. These women do not have the economic resources to make this journey to Chiapas, and it is of vital importance for the struggle of the Other Campaign that these women meet and inter-exchange their ideas and words.

Indigenous women, students, sex-workers, women farm-workers, and political prisoners are but just a few examples of sectors of women that will come together for this gathering with the objective to create links, analysis, discussion and exchange of experiences of struggle with an end result of creating connections that will serve to let us get to know our demands, our efforts, and above all else our proposals to combat the current policy of extermination that this capitalist, neo-liberal, and patriarchal bad government maintains.

Within the process of inviting the women that will integrate the América del Valle Caravan, women of the Other Campaign meeting in preparation for the gathering in Chiapas are also participating in the proposal and invitation process. In this way, the caravan delegates will count on the recognition from as many women possible creating the opportunity and course towards the Zapatista Women’s Gathering.

We chose to name the caravan América del Valle in recognition of our friend from the Other Campaign, who currently is in political-exile from Mexico due to the events that occurred the 3rd and 4th of May, 2006 in Atenco and Texcoco, in the state of Mexico.

A los medios libres,A las organizaciones sociales nacionales e internacionalesA los y las individuos: ¡Ayudanos!; a llevar 20 mujeres luchadoras sociales ejemplares de México y del mundo a Chiapas! La Caravana América del Valle busca apoyo economico para realizar esta histórica delagación al segundo Encuentro de Pueblos Zapatistas con los Pueblos del Mundo con el tema de mujeres el cual se llevará acabo los días 29, 30 y 31 de diciembre, en el Caracol de la Garrucha. Compañeras y compañeros de diferentes colectivos tanto del Distrito Federal de México, como de Oaxaca nos estamos organizando para garantizar el transporte de 20 compañeras de diferentes partes de México y del mundo.Las compañeras transportadas serán mujeres con finalidades definidas que representan sectores o regiones; como es el caso de las compañeras oaxaqueñas que muchas representan comunidades indígenas.Las mujeres no cuentan con los recursos para hacer este viaje a Chiapas y es de suma importancia para la lucha de la Otra Campaña que las mujeres se encuentren e intercambien sus ideas y su palabra. Mujeres indígenas, estudiantes, trabajadoras sexuales, obreras campesinas, presas políticas entre algunos ejemplos se darán cita en dicho encuentro con el objetivo de crear lazos, análisis, discusión e intercambio de experiencias de lucha con la finalidad de crear vínculos que nos permitan conocer nuestras demandas, quehaceres y sobre todo propuestas para combatir la actual política de exterminio que mantiene este mal gobierno capitalista, neoliberal y patriarcal. En el proceso para invitar a las mujeres que integrarán la caravana América del Valle participan reuniones de mujeres de la Otra Campaña, por lo cual contará con el reconocimiento de las mas mujeres que sea posible construyendo la oportunidad y el camino rumbo al Encuentro de Mujeres Zapatistas. Elegimos nombrar a la carvana América del Valle en reconocimiento a nuestra compañera de la Otra Campaña que actualmente se encuentra exiliada por ser perseguida política a partir de los hechos ocurridos el 3 y 4 de Mayo del 2006 en Atenco y Texcoco, Estado de México.  http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Salvador_Atenco  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atenco Si deseas sumarte a este esfuerzo apoyandonos con una donación, por favor escríbenos a: caravanamericadelvalle(AT)riseup.net
