Although we are different, we live the same pains
Reflecting on the recent 8M (International Women's Day), activist Alejandra Jiménez from the Totonaco people of Totonacapan shared insights on the Third Meeting of Women of the National Indigenous Congress (CNI) held on March 6 and 7. The meeting gathered 96 indigenous and mestizo women from various Mexican indigenous communities at the building of the National Institute of Indigenous Peoples (INPI) in Mexico City, now occupied by the Otomí community. Discussions focused on women and territory, resistance and autonomy, and the fight against patriarchy. The CNI, established in 1996, aims to strengthen resistance and rebellion through self-organization and decision-making. The women's meetings began after the First Encounter of Women Who Struggle, convened by the Zapatistas in March 2018, to continue the commitment to 'stay alive and fighting.' The article explores the CNI women's perspectives on feminism, their diverse identities, and their collective struggle against patriarchal and capitalist systems, emphasizing the importance of community and solidarity in their resistance.
The Forest in Front: Resistance at Hambach
Since 2012, activists have been resisting the multinational energy company RWE and Europe's largest open-pit mine, located in Hambach, Germany. The mine, which is also the world's deepest, has led to the deforestation of 93% of the ancient forest above the lignite deposits. Activists have set up tree platforms to protect the remaining forest from machinery. The conflict with police and RWE has escalated, with complete deforestation planned by 2018. RWE, the main CO2 emitter in Europe, has permission to extract coal until 2045 and plans to create a recreational lake in the pit post-extraction. The resistance continues despite multiple evictions, with activists employing various tactics, including direct action, to hinder the mine's operation and expansion.
