Collectively we decided that we would put Bonafont and the three levels of Government (the National Commission of Water, the Environmental Secretary, and the National Institute of Indigenous Peoples), on trial in our courts for their complicity in the destruction of our lands and waters.
With left fists punching the air, everyone shouted “CULPABLES!”, Guilty!
“Those of us who hold this trial, based on the principles of autonomy, self-determination and the preservation of our mother earth, decree: the territory that the Bonafont company seized over 29 years ago from our communities must be reappropriated, and that the facilities and all the goods found therein will be used to build Altepelmecalli, The House of the People. This space will be for the integral reconstruction of our peoples: for health, education, food, shelter, land, work, independence, information, equality, freedom, democracy, justice and peace.”
The gate that barred the plant was forced open, communities entered and the industrial well was destroyed.

Another Category 5 typhoon (Typhoon Rai, local name Odette) has struck the Philippines, devastating millions of people in the central and southern regions of the country. While we clamor for an immediate and adequate government response alongside reparations from the Global North for their historic emissions, we are currently accepting donations to help the families affected by the storm.
