Women from the communities of Rebolledo, Los Arquitos, and Río Minas in San Pablo Cuatro Venados, Oaxaca, have organized to defend their land from a Canadian mining project installed by Arco Resources Corporation. The Zapotec women in these communities shared the story of their organization, fight, and work to continue living and planting on their lands, which were once defended by their ancestors and have always been communal.
