Witness for Peace: Building Solidarity for a New Society

We are building transnational grassroots solidarity to resist violence, poverty and oppression in the U.S. and Latin America

CELEBRATING 40 YEARS OF SOLIDARITY

We believe that social transformation is built from the ground up. The Solidarity Collective centers the narratives, histories, and lived experiences of those most-affected by U.S. intervention and corporate extractivism - both in Latin America and the Caribbean, as well as within the Diaspora.

Join a Delegation

We believe in collective liberation and the transformative power of nonviolent social change. The Solidarity Collective builds intersectional people’s power and challenges oppression, racism, militarization and war in all of its forms.

"The delegation experience provoked a deeper part of my humanity that is pervasively dormant in the states. The part that recognizes the well-being of the individual as nurtured by the well-being of the collective; that paints every corner of the country with affirmations of freedom, love, and humanity; the part that smiles effortlessly; laughs a ton; and can repurpose a literal trash dump into a vibrant neighborhood cultural arts cooperative, gallery, and school."
