November 2025: territories occupied by the Brazilian state — December, January, and beyond: the World!
In Belém, they’re exploiting workers and cutting down parts of the Amazon to get ready for the COP30, the yearly UN-sponsored climate summit. For 30 years, government leaders, scientists, major NGOs, and corporations from around the world have been claiming to address the problem, but the problem is only getting worse. It’s no surprise, because the institutions trying to monopolize the solutions are the same ones causing the problem, destroying our ecosystems, exploiting us, cutting our healthcare, and endangering our access to food, housing, clean air, and water.
We don’t have the luxury to trust them for one more day.
This November, as the rich and powerful meet and make deals, an anticolonial network with strands all over the world will weave itself closer together. Urban anarchists fighting for housing, healthcare, and free transportation, and against the authoritarianism that has destroyed previous revolutions. Rural communities that have fled extreme poverty in the cities, survivors of colonialism and the African diaspora, taking back land from the plantation economy and other extractive industries, healing it, growing their own food, and then sharing through their expanding networks. Indigenous peoples who call the Amazon their home, who defend it, who take care of the forest and the rivers and never lost ecosystemic ways of organizing their communities.
We want to strengthen our ties and learn from one another. We want to show the world that we can all unplug ourselves from this Machine that destroys life. We want to make it plain that the State, the capitalists, the experts, the big charities, are not going to save us from this huge crisis that they caused. And we want to spread examples of what real change looks like, so people everywhere can support such initiatives in their own regions or start new projects and join this growing network, a network that isn’t a Party or a single organization. We don’t want you to give up your autonomy, your critical thinking, your history. We want to be in conversation with you, so we can all learn from one another, and have each others’ backs in a spirit of solidarity and mutual aid.
To do that we need your help: paying for transportation as we cross the borders that separate us. Paying for basic food as some of us go on the road to meet with new friends and learn about projects and struggles from São Paulo to Belém, distances of thousands of kilometers. To pay for equipment that will help us take interviews and make documentaries about what we’re learning. And to bring resources to projects that can inspire resistance around the world.
Give what you can. Pass this on to friends. And when the articles, interviews, podcasts, and videos from this project start to come out over the following months, please help us spread them and translate them!
