the Mexico Solidarity Network presents:
Maíz y el País: Political violence in Mexico
and corn's lessons for justice
with Luz Rivera Martínez, organizer with Consejo Nacional Urbano y Campesino (CNUC) & Ervin López of the Mexico Solidarity Network
Luz will speak on State-sponsored political
violence in Mexico and how corn is a symbol
for autonomy and the dignified struggle for a
better world. Luz has 20 years of experience
constructing autonomy, organizing outside the
electoral system, and resisting genetically
modified corn while protecting millennia-old
varieties. Her talk will have important lessons
for anyone interested in human rights,
women's, peasant, and labor movements.!
