Dear Alex,
What’s up with the Movement?
Brother, you, yourself, your spirit became the Movement. We did everything in your honor–more than 170 actions.
Always
In all ways
All Amor for Alex Nieto
Your Servant of Spirit and Sincerity,
Ben Bac Sierra
Loved Ones,
On this seventh anniversary of Alex Nieto’s killing, find strength and goodness in all of our Amor. You can use this comprehensive list of actions, links, videos, and photos as proof of the power of Amor. Scroll through it, and you will understand more than any educational text. Share it and use it to understand the entire system, to appreciate our resilience, and to inspire others to critical consciousness and courage. Share this for strategy purposes, and use it as a basis to write educational essays, poems, and books, and to share love with each other, exactly as Alex Nieto would have wanted it.
If I have missed a major action, I apologize and ask that you please send me the date and any relevant links, photos, videos, or articles of the Amor for Alex Nieto event. Thank you.
Brother Ben
