MAY DAY x BULBANCHA // NEW ORLEANS

Tomorrow (May 1) freedom loving people will gather on scout island in city park to honor those who've come before us and the struggles ahead.

Starting at 4pm there will be a land stewardship discussion, inviting one another to listen, consider, and make plans together. How can we commit ourselves to the island’s wellbeing, its tending, and maybe even the introduction of new plantings, with respect for the ecology we find already in place.

At 5:30pm there will be a picnic followed by a zine release at 7:00pm. In collaboration between and Ch'o Tinimit (Xelajuj N'oj), "Sink the Chiquita Horizon" traces a century of corporate colonialism across Central America and the Gulf South. Grounded in the United Fruit Company's legacy of extraction and displacement in New Orleans and Guatemala, the zine outlines how corporations and government elites force migration to restructure land and food for profit.

At 8pm there will be a screening of "No More Evictions! The Struggle For Indigenous Land in Post-War Guatemala" followed by a discussion about the film and current land struggles in Eastern Guatemala including members of Ch'o Tinimit, an info shop in Xela, Guatemala.
