The EZLN and The Other Campaign/La Otra Campaña in the USA

Juan Haro of the Movement for Justice in the Barrio will discuss the Zapatista's Other Campaign both in Mexico and the USA. He will focus on how it has influenced the work that the MJB does around anti-gentrification organizing in New York City.

The Movement for Justice in El Barrio was founded by immigrants and low-income people of color. For the past three years, this 400-member strong tenant rights organization has successfully staved off the gentrification of Spanish Harlem. Movement for Justice in El Barrio will be coming to Austin to share their successes and discuss their organizing strategies.

The Austin Time Exchange Network (ATEN) is a local program that enables individuals to provide and receive skills and services within a network of people and organizations in Greater Austin. Similar to concepts expressed in bartering and alternative currency systems, this grassroots initiative lets members exchange labor and assistance without using the U.S. Dollar. Launched in April of 2006, ATEN currently has over 60 members and invites new participants to join by attending any of our upcoming introduction meetings.
