It is a coming to a utopian nonsite, a no-place where everything is possible—but only in exchange for the pain of the crossing.

Virtual Nepantla

Botanica Nahualli began in 2018 as an online spiritual shop rooted in Mesoamerican culture; in the span of six years, it evolved into a digital ghetto where we (nepantlerxs) turn toward spirituality and art in search of resistance and liberation.

 

Radical Imagination is Our Responsibility

We are border-dwellers living in the aftermath of colonialism. Embedded in our projects is our vision of a more equitable future.

Wachale Cineteca

Liberating our minds through an anti-colonial cinematic movement and circumventing gatekeeping forces.

Rooted Goods

Re-establishing our connection to the earth, and strengthening our communities in the process.

MendoMuscle

Assuming control over our body-minds and our health. We release outdated ideologies that no longer serve us.

Borderlands Sanctuary

Enter a space at the center of the margins. Find face, heart, and spirit in a radical eslewhere.

 
 
 
 

Borders are set up to define the places that are safe and unsafe, to distinguish us from them. A border is a dividing line, a narrow strip along a steep edge. A borderland is a vague and undetermined place created by the emotional residue of an unnatural boundary. It is in a constant state of transition. The prohibited and forbidden are its inhabitants.

—Gloria Anzaldúa
