August 11, 2009: Global Action Day for Honduras

To the sisters and brothers of all the regions of Via Campesina
To the sisters and brothers of all social movements
To all the people of the world

Since the military coup--after more than 38 days of untiring efforts
by thousands of farmers, women, indigenous people, teachers, students,
unionists, and ordinary citizens of the cities and the countryside to
revert it and to recover democracy and dignity--the repression by the
coup participants has not notched the fighting spirit of the heroic
Honduran people.

This struggle has now entered a crucial phase as the farmers movement
and the National Front of Resistance Against the Coup d'Etat have
summoned the social, union and democratic movements to a National
March that begins on the 5 of August and will culminate on the 11 of
August in Tegucigalpa and
San Pedro Sula.

In support of this National March and our sister and brother farmers
and all the Honduran people, Via Campesina calls you to participate in
a "Global Day
of Action for Honduras", which will take place on the 11 of August of
this year.  We seek to support strong solidarity efforts in carrying
out political and cultural mobilization, concrete actions, and
political
pressure and lobbying, as well as any and all possible activities that
help advance the Honduran popular resistance in defeating this
military coup.

GLOBALIZE THE HOPE!  GLOBALIZE THE STRUGGLE!

Henry Saragih
International Coordinator of Via Campesina
