- Estación Libre
Estación Libre, an activist group founded in 1997, works in solidarity with the EZLN in
San Cristobal de las Casas ,Chiapas ,Mexico . It was founded specifically to strengthen "the connections between communities of color (in the U.S.) with each other and the Zapatista movement."Since, according to Estación Libre, "the international solidarity movement [that works with the EZLN] is white dominated", the group works to link activists and communities of color from the [United States] with the indigenous population of
Chiapas ,Mexico .One of the organization's projects consists of sending "people-of-color work brigade [s] from the United States" to
Chiapas to work in Zapatista communities and build links for future solidarity work.References
