“From when we wake up until we go to bed, there is something to fight for.” – Darinson fra CNA.
Today we had visitors from Colombia, Guatemala, and Brasil through Latin-Amerikagruppene (LAG). We talked about how our struggles are connected, how we can learn from each other, and in what ways our struggles are also different. While it can be hard in Norway it to mobilize people to go outside their daily routines, our guests live in places where they don’t have a choice but to fight for their existence. And many of their struggles are produced by the norwegian state (e.g. Statkraft, equinor, hydro) and encountered with weapons that are part of the norwegian military industry.
Check out the work of Via Campesina, MST, CNA, Conavigua and LAG to learn more. Stop norwegian colonialism in Latin America (also the “green” version)! No more explosives for imperial wars and land grabbing!
Thank you for sharing your experiences and thank you for your support. We look forward to working together in the time to come❤
