August 27 was the first day of the No Border Encuentro which took place in Tijuana and San Diego. The encuentro provided a time and space to become informed and fightback against the border, racism, capitalism and empire. We struggle for dignity, autonomy and freedom of movement for all peoples.

We call on people everywhere to converge on the San Diego/Tijuana region and the Mexicali/Calexico region of the Mexico/US border in order to stop the vigilante operation being planned there by the Friends of the Border Patrol, beginning on September 16th. Our goal for Sep. 16th-18th is to take action and directly shut down the Minutemen operations. There will be a bus leaving San Francisco for the action, to reserve your space email stoptheminutemen (at) riseup.net
