[RED DEMOCRATICA] Prestigiosa org hizo posible protesta contra Alan Garcia

 

Rally for Peru, Against Free Trade Today

Stand for Indigenous Rights & Mother Earth
WHEN: Today (Tuesday), 6/1 @ 5:30 pm
WHERE: at the White House (LaFayette Square side, near Farragut West and McPherson Square metro stops)

Today, I invite you again to stand with those who struggle for justice. For people over profits, for the rights of indigenous peoples over corporate-sponsored free trade agreements, for the dignity and self-determination of all peoples.

Yesterday, at least ten activists were killed by Israeli commandos while attempting to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza.

Almost a year ago, hundreds of people were killed in the Bagua Massacre, when Peruvian state forces violently repressed an indigenous protest against the new free trade agreement with the US.

We condemn the violence against those who stand up for justice, and lift up the spirits of those who have died for our struggles. Today at 5:30 pm, Peruvians in Action, the Quixote Center, SOA Watch, Witness for Peace, Youth 4 Truth/ the On-Q Initiative and allies will stand at the White House in peaceful protest for indigenous rights. Actress and indigenous rights activist Q'Orianka Kilcher will be among the speakers.

While the presidents of Peru and the U.S. meet in private, we will be raising a cry for justice in public, demanding an end to policies that destroy the environment and push people off land for profit. If you cannot make it to the White House this afternoon, I hope you'll take a moment to tell your Representative that they must take action to stop free trade agreements like the one in Peru that has already produced a death toll.

Gratefully yours, with a heavy and outraged heart,
