facilitated by MIGRANTE-NL, Friends of the Filipino People in Struggle (FFPS), and the International League of Peoples' Struggle (ILPS) in cooperation with niet normaal*A comradely gathering with the Zapatista delegation from Mexico and representatives of activist organizations of the Filipino community. The people of the Philippines and Mexico share a common history of colonization (Spanish and American) dating as far back as five hundred years ago. In recent decades, their struggles have been similar. Among these struggles are indigenous communities resisting multinational companies and the extractive industries, workers demanding decent wages and better work conditions, and peasant farmers demanding essentially the right to the land that they are tilling. They are both ruled by corrupt, despotic governments that represent and act in behalf of capitalist/imperialist interests, and will use the full might of the state machinery to discourage and silence criticism and opposition. But they also both have rich experiences of using a wide range of forms of resistance ranging from art and culture, electoral/parliamentary participation, vibrant street protests, to armed resistance.Both have common aspirations --- a future where people no longer suffer from poverty, exploitation and oppression fueled by the greed for superprofits.*Kasama means comrade in Tagalog (Filipino). Compas is short for compañeras, compañeros y compañeroes (non-binary).-----MIGRANTE-Netherlands is an alliance of Filipino migrant organizations in the Netherlands. It promotes and defends the rights and welfare of Filipinos in the Netherlands within the framework of peoples’ struggle for democracy, justice &amp; peace for our motherland, the Philippines.

They organize parties and protests and are committed to holding safe(r) spaces for FLINT (female, lesbian, intersex, non-binary and trans) people.
