Dear x:talk

We are the Nodo Solidale collective – Solidarity Knot, a grassroots group of activists based in Italy and Mexico. Our path is antifascist, antiracist, antisexist libertarian and independent from any party. Since a few years we have been working on building bridges of solidarity and cooperation together with the activists involved in anti authoritarian struggles in Mexico.

We are writing to tell you about the Brigada Callejera, a grassroots group of sex workers/activists in D.F. Mexico, which is also part of the Red Mexicana de Trabajo Sexual and of the Otra Campaña.

We met the Brigata callejera during one of our trips to Mexico. Since then, we started collaborating with them both by translating materials and press releases into Italian and English, and by raising funds for their autonomous health clinics, selling their condoms or organising benefit events.

The Brigada Callejera is currently struggling for sex worker rights in Mexico. They are working to create a space for sexual health for sex workers in two autonomous clinics in the heart of Mexico City.

We as Nodosolidale are building a european solidarity web between the Brigada and other grassroots activists groups who deal with sexual workers rights here in Europe, and are interested in knowing them and their struggle, and spread it and support it.

If you are interested in spreading their voice and their materials on your website or even organize benefit/info events, you can contact us or directly them (in spanish) through their email below.

And if you like to sustaing the brigada by distributing condoms, we can also provide you with the encanto :
