(un)Occupy Albuquerque

(un)Occupy Albuquerque WHY (Un)? The United States is a colonial and imperial nation built on stolen indigenous lands and the institution of slavery.

It is our strong conviction that a movement to end economic injustice must have at its core an honest struggle to end racism, colonization, and all forms of oppression. (un)Occupy Albuquerque, in solidarity with the Occupy Wall Street movement, indigenous peoples, and colonized peoples worldwide, realizes that language has historically played a powerful role in social transformation. Given the "o

ccupation" of native lands across the Americas since 1492, the colonization of Africa, Asia, and other parts of the world, and the continued "occupation" of Iraq and Afghanistan, we resist the term “occupy” or, for that matter, any language that is connected to the oppression of people. (des)Occupar Albuquerque, en solidaridad con el movimiento OcuparWall Street, los pueblos indígenas y los pueblos colonizados en todo el mundo, nos damos cuenta de que históricamente el lenguaje ha desempeñado un poderoso papel en la transformación social. Dada la "ocupación" de tierras indígenas en las Américas desde 1492, la colonización de África, Asia y otras partes del mundo y la "ocupación" de Irak y Afganistán, nos resistimos a usar el término "ocupar" o, en este caso, cualquier lenguaje que esté vinculado a la opresión del pueblo. We believe that by ignoring the dynamics of privilege, this monumental social movement will repeat the very structures of injustice it seeks to eliminate. Si permitimos que la dinámica de privilegio siga sin ser cuestionada, este monumental movimiento social repetirá las estructuras injustas que pretende eliminar. Estados Unidos es una nación imperialista y colonialista construida sobre tierras robadas a los indígenas y la esclavitud. Es nuestra firme convicción de que un movimiento tendiente a ponerle fin a la injusticia económica tiene que tener como eje central una lucha honesta para acabar con el racismo, la colonización y la oppression en todas sus formas.
