The Cross-Border Network for Justice and Solidarity
The Cross Border Network for Justice and Solidarity is a grassroots
organization based in Kansas City which recognizes the common interests
of working people in North America and builds ties for common action
among them. We seek to overcome the phony competition of the global
economy that pits workers and communities against each other in a no-win
race to the bottom. Instead we work toward cooperation which enhances
both Mexicans' and Americans' ability to win economic and social justice.
Through education, tours, and cooperative work, we are building ties
of solidarity involving workers, unions, churches, community organizations,
environmentalists and peace and justice advocates. We believe that grassroots
solidarity will eventually sift upwards to shape the agendas of larger
social change institutions and eventually impact the institutions of
power.
CBN is an active member of The
Coalition for Justice in the Maquiladoras and through this US/Mexico/Canada
organization is involved in a number of campaigns. Please visit the
