CAFÉ REBELDE
Organized by La Surda Latin American Collective

An Invitation to Join Us on an Evening for Solidarity with the Peasantry
Movement in Colombia.

FENSUAGRO is the largest federation of farmers in Colombia comprising land
less peasants, small land owners-farmers, women’s, organic
producers, rural-agro associations which in coordination with indigenous
sectors, Afro-Colombian communities, the working-class and progressive
sectors of society, struggle in defence of the interests of the
impoverished rural population for an Agrarian Reform  and for the rights
of all Colombians  in the search for political solutions and for the
building of peace with social justice.

 FENSUAGRO will be celebrating  it's 30th Anniversary of Resistance and
Struggle this December, it will be a very important celebration of
courage, accomplishments and resistance as  its members have been
systematically targeted over the years by the establishment and the
paramilitaries in their
desperate attempts to impose the neo-liberal model. During the last ten
years, over 300 of its members have been assassinated or disappeared and
many more are jailed or have been forced to flee into exile.
