Shocking and devastating loss of compañero Javier Sánchez, leading figure en La Via Campesina! "May the seeds of Javier and Esther, now in the earth and forever in our hearts, grow into forests and fields teeming with life. Farewell, comrades!" viacampesina.org/en/2026/08/u...

Until Always, Javier and Esther

Amidst the profound sadness of Javier and Esther's loss, we believe that their example and legacy will continue to beat strongly throughout the peasant movement for food sovereignty.

Let’s fully and collectively celebrate this victory! Collectively, bc this is as much about NYC and New Yorkers as it is far beyond it. Fully, bc there're few things better than crying w/ happiness and radical hope. As the Gezi resistance chants: “This is only the beginning.The struggle continues!”

No bomb should’ve ever dropped on a single civilian, a single child. If this is the end of them I’m glad. But the loss is so so immense and the future so uncertain. What does “peace” mean when it sits atop a genocide? What peace when the genocider dictates its terms?
