Peru Solidarity and Appeal for Action

Earthquake leaves cities in ruins

The militants of the Grupo Qhispikay Llaqta is calling for a meeting of
all libertarians, friends and anyone interested, to be held on Sunday
at noon in Plaza Francia, to organize aid for the region hit by the
earthquake.
---Appeal for aid to Ica

Comrades and friends, everybody already knows about the disaster that
has
hit our brothers and sisters from the south of the country (Ica,
Chincha,
Pisco), besides the mountain areas of Huancavelica, Ayacucho, Ica,
southern Lima. Because of this, and irrespective of personal differences,
now is the moment to unite and show our solidarity, not only in words
but also through action.

The militants of the Grupo Qhispikay Llaqta is calling for a meeting of
all libertarians, friends and anyone interested, to be held on Sunday
at noon in Plaza Francia, bringing with us all that we can, such as:

blankets
used clothes in good condition
non-perishable foodstuffs
water
coats
tents
anything considered useful.

The city of Ica is also home to the comrades of the Ica No Pasiva
collective, though at the moment we have no news of them. All collected

donations will be sent then to Ica by means of a commission from the
Movimiento Nacional de Nats* Organizados del PerĂº (MNNATSOP - National

Movement of Organized Child and Teenage Workers of Peru) that has a
branch
in Avenida Arequipa. This organization of working youths is trustworthy

since we know about its work and we have had some previous contacts
with
them. There is also a possibility that some of us may take part in the
commission. Let's help the men, women, children, old people and
comrades
that live in the Ica area, who have nothing. While today we are with
our
families, many of these people now have no family and no home to spend
the
night. We cannot be indifferent.
