Occupy, Produce and Resist – The MST is Globalizing Hope!
I recently traveled to the Northeast of Brazil to visit Grassroots International’s partners with our Executive Director, Nikhil Aziz, who is also a member of the Board of Directors of Resist,Inc. an activist foundation.

Many of you have probably already read about the incredible success of the MST ‘s national march for agrarian reform.
