#Benefit party for Oaxaca#



Hi,
we are part of an italian collective called Nodo_Solidale
(www.autistici.org/nodosolidale).
This collective was born after the clashes happened in Oaxaca City (Mexico)
during may 2006 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_Oaxaca_protests) when in
Rome, our city,some people came up with the need to do something about it.
Our political path is anarchist, antifascist and independent from any
parties, and it proposes a cooperation from below with the
antiauthoritarian struggles going on in Mexico.
Therefor, since one year our collective started few projects in
collaboration with some mexican realities.
We propose small and concrete projects of economic and political support by
exchanging and activating "counter" information.
For instance, we strictly collaborate with Radio Proletaria (Tuxla), with
C.A.M.A.(a colllective based in the "Flores Magon" social centre in Mexico
City) and with oaxacan native people collectives.
Have a look at the projects here:
http://www4.autistici.org/nodosolidale/progetti.php

Speaking about the projects, the way we see them is mostly as an
opportunity to share our experiences, like an exchange between our protests
here in Italy and the one going on in Mexico.
Our main goal is ,in first place, making the widest range of people aware
of what is going on in nowadays in Mexico, and that's why from Rome we
focus on the sharing and translating of texts and documents that we get
directly from Oaxaca
(http://www4.autistici.org/nodosolidale/materiali.php?cat_mat=0).

Moreover we organize benefit parties in several squats here in Europe to
show videos and make counterinformation and debates, and in order to raise
some money to send to Oaxaca to support projects like DIY radios, media
centers, but also medicines and all they need to survive...

Some of us are living there in Mexico and they are involved day by day in
the protest. Some of us go to Oaxaca every few months to participate to a
project or to organize caravans inside oaxaca state which are very useful
to preserve oaxacan population from police abuses,thanks to the presence
of international people.


After this brief introduction, here is the goal of this email: our idea is
to develope this project also here in The Netherlands.
We are looking for people,squats,social centers that want to join/help with
our project. We are interested in organizing movies screening,info-points,
benefit parties, people's kitchen or whatever event to spread counter
information about what is going on in Oaxaca.

Here in the Netherlands we already started our support to the oaxacan fight
against repression through our radio show called "Radio Resistance xxx"
(www.autistici.org/audioresistance) on air on Radio Patapoe 88.3 FM
Amsterdam
every friday after 9:00 p.m. (streaming on.....www.freeteam.nl/patapoe/)
where we usually give some news and sometimes interviews on oaxaca issues.

If you are interested in what we do we would like to meet you face to face
to know each other and plan a collaboration (whatever you like to do,
infonights, projects, translations, is welcome!)
We think that we can do a lot in the field of international solidarity just
by counting on our own forces, without any institutional mediation and
resources.

we hope to hear from you soon....

Gianluca and Marco
