Ecovercities Global Gathering in Michoacan happened right before the Day of the Dead.

After a day-long workshop led by artists Kate Morales, Daniela Brasil, and Nikolay Oleynikov, - the 100-headed international group brought to the common altar their ancestors, including the ones that formed us politically and otherwise. Who informed our paths, and inspires us to keep on fighting for a better future no matter what. What we are doing now, we are doing because of they’ve practiced what they’ve preached: Paulo Freire, Berta Cáseres, Marielle Franco, subcomandanta Ramona and Joe Strummer, Micha the cat and nonna Mimma, Nastya Baburova and Stas Markelov - presente!
