The FTAA is coming to Miami where ministers will be meeting from November 20-21. START NOW TO STOP THE FTAA! Come down to Florida for the week to Fight for Fair Trade.
Four years ago in February of 1999 in Seattle, a motley network of 80 activists first came together to plan for the civil society mobilization against the WTO. Similarly historic meetings are regularly taking place in Miami, throughout Florida and around the country to begin planning the civil society welcome for the FTAA with events scheduled for November 17th – 21st in downtown Miami.
Be a part of this mobilization against corporate-controlled globalization – and help Stop the FTAA!
There are already plans for: Teach-ins and seminars, reality tours, concerts and forums, rallies and marches, and many more ways to get our Fair Trade message out! Folks from Florida and around the country will be joined by activists from around the world linking the local issues to the global fights, while building solidarity and alternatives.

MEANWHILE: GET CONNECTED, EDUCATE AND ORGANIZE
All over the hemisphere, folks are learning about “NAFTA on Steroids” and fighting corporate rule.
The FTAA is an expansion of NAFTA, a Proven Disaster
It’s being negotiated without Citizen Input
The FTAA will undermine Labor Rights, Push Down Wages and cause Job Loss
It will hasten Environmental Degradation
The FTAA will hurt Family Farmers
It will lead to privatization and extreme deregulation of Essential Services
Corporations will be given outrageous rights to sue Governments
The FTAA will jeopardize consumer safeguards
It will spread the use of genetically modified organisms (GMOs)
It will deny access to lifesaving medicines for millions of people
The FTAA will make the rich richer and increase poverty throughout the hemisphere
