Capital is appropriating our territories. Hence, we must respond by turning the
struggle for land into a struggle for territor.
This will require
forging unions between –on one side– peasant farmers, day laborers,
indigenous peoples, nomad shepherds, artisan fishermen, forest peoples
and other rural communities, and –on another– city dwellers, especially
those in suburban communities and consumers.
It will require producing
healthy food using agroecology and know-how handed down from our
ancestors and steeped in popular traditions.
We must show that land in
community hands is better for society and Mother Earth than land which
is at the mercy of capital.
