The Zapatistas have launched “The Other Campaign” and
are organizing with women, indigenous peoples,
students, workers, gay, lesbian and transgender
people, the elderly, youth and the poor to build a new
non-electoral national grassroots movement “FROM BELOW
AND FOR BELOW” against neoliberalism and for humanity.
Thousands of Mexicans have joined “The Other Campaign”
including immigrants living in the U.S.

Movement for Justice in El Barrio is a grassroots
organization of Mexican immigrants fighting against
gentrification in El Barrio (East Harlem) and is part
of the Zapatista-initiated “Other Campaign.”
In November, a delegation from Movement for Justice in
El Barrio went to Mexico to share our word and our
struggle with the Zapatistas by way of a video.
Through their spokesperson, Subcomandante Marcos, the
Zapatistas sent their word back to NYC in this all-new
interview!!

PLEASE JOIN US AT OUR FUNDRAISER FOR “THE OTHER
CAMPAIGN” IN NYC!!
