Hace 19 años surgio la Peña del Bronx en la iglesia de Santa Anna,en la Esquina de la 140 St.Las nuevas imigraciones empezaban a poblar el Sur del Bronx,venian desde todos los continentes,con su hijos,familias y culturas,con sus danzas, sus ancestros,ritos,contradicciones y esperanzas a cuestas iniciaban sus quehaceres por unas condiciones de vidas mejor.
Surgimos cuando la crisis de la teoria de la "guerra Fria" se hacia patetica y luego se hacia agua,cuando nadien apostaba a las nuevas ideas de la autogestion,la autonomia y al poder comunitario independiente del Estado y de la corrupcion politica.
Eran pues los años de la bonazas del neoliberalismo imperial y de todas las multinacionales,el capitalismo salvaje disfrazado y a la moda,asi y en medio de esta situacion inicio su labor la Peña un Centro Comunitario multicultural,multietnico y multirracial en el corazon de la pobresa,racismo y de la triple opresion en el Sur del Bronx,bregando a un nivel sencillo y habeces complejo,educando tratando de entregar un nuevo ejemplo un nuevo cuerpo de ideas a partir de la labor de base,con una metodologia democratica,de asamblea popular,tratando de ampliar su actuacion territorial y a la ves cuestionar el podrido sistema institucional y politiquero delos Estados Unidos,no a sido cosa facil,los corruptos del sistema nos han caido con todo en sima,arrestos,asaltos de nuestros locales,ataques a nuestros festivales y asambleas al aire libre.
Constituimos una de las pocas organizaciones autonomas que a enarbolado una tactica y un programa para la lucha de los pobres y que podran en contrar en la pagina de la Peña.,en estas ideas construidas al andar y enfrentados al sistema mas poderosos del mundo,podran encontrar aportes,pasages en la gran batalla por
redefinir nuestros caminos y sueños hacia la liberacion de todos los pobres y marginados de la tierra.
Las luchas reivindicativas,sociales,politicas,economicas,culturales y imigratorias las concebimos ligadas profundamente a las luchas de los pobres y marginados de nuestro continente,promovemos un quehacer sin fronteras y sin banderas,intentamos una "Corrida de cerco"desde Tierra del Fuego hasta Alaska,desde todas las cordilleras al Mar.
Nuestra mision aun esta inconclusa,invitamos a continuar educando,organizando a nivel de base y comunitario,proclamndo cada vez con mas fuerzas la importancia de la democracia del Poder popular,la autonomia de masas y la autogestion de los mas,de los pobres y marginados de la tierra.
Con el ejemplo de nuestros ancestros, padres,abuelas y tias,con la juventud y sabiduria de nuestros niños,continuaremos tratando de cambiar tanta injusticias.

Peace family, There have seemed to have a type-o in the flier for the “Know Your Rights” event that we are having. Apparently the date of the flier supposes to be on September 29th and not the 28th (it is not on Friday, it’s on Saturday). Please forgive us for the misunderstanding, but regardless we are still going to have a blast.
Remember the “Know Your Rights” event it’s on Saturday, September 29th from 6pm-2am. Hope to see you then…!
Forty years of overtly racist (as per the definition provided in the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination: "'racial discrimination' shall mean any distinction, exclusion, restriction or preference based on race, colour, descent, or national or ethnic origin...") domination, subjugation, and oppression financed by the United States absolutely DEMANDS that Americans speak up, speak out and say No More!

Elenemigocomun.net and PalenqueUrbana.org are collaborating on a Oaxaca solidarity fundraising strategy, which is based in contributing media resources and medical supplies to some of Oaxaca’s most remote indigenous farmworker communities. The organizations we are directly contributing to are CODEP-APPO, COMPA, OIDHO and AMZ. The paramilitary violence highlighted by the recent assassination of NYC Indymedia journalist Brad Will, has been an all too prevalent reality for Oaxaca’s indigenous communities.
Most of the attention and aid going to Oaxaca today is concentrated in the state’s capital, as a result of recent clashes there. However, the history and future of paramilitary violence in Oaxaca is rooted in the natural resource extraction of its most remote communities. The strategic displacement of these communities, in order to gain access to their resources, and subsequently to their cheap labor, is the driving force behind paramilitary violence today. Communities who organize and resist this violence are met with brute police force.
In fact, the violent displacement of communities of color around our world, is directly connected to the political and economic forces at play in Oaxaca. This is an imposition which reduces human life to a mere variable in an economic equation, and a disposable variable at that.
For this reason palenqueurbana.org and elenemigocomun.net are collaborating, and reaching out to you or your organization for support. We are currently engaging in a local outreach / popular education campaign on the current situation in Oaxaca and its relevance to our own communities in resistance here in the US.
We would like to invite your organization to collaborate with us in this effort to contribute to this popular movement in Oaxaca, and together work on actions to help maintain attention to the situation, educate ourselves and our communities, and raise funds for medical supplies and media resources for the communities at most risk.
The vast majority of the medical supplies will be purchased in country as they are readily available and less expensive. To that end cash donations are strongly encouraged.
Media supplies can include as many of the following as possible:
- digital video cameras (Including old digital 8 camcorders)
- digital photographic cameras and memory chips
- digital audio recorders w/ mic input
- laptops w/ a particular need for macintosh g3 or better
- external hard-drives
- head sets and microphones
- cables: Firewire, USB, RCA, RCA to 1/8 inch, S-video etc.
- analogue to digital converter
- mini dv and digital 8 tapes
- mini disc recorders and mini discs
- blank dvd-r (minus not plus), cd-r’s
Please contact solidarity@elenemigocomun.net about equipment donations!
