The settlement of Blanca Navidad, on the outskirts of Nuevo Laredo, just south of the U.S. border. Blanca Navidad was created by workers looking for land to build a place to live, and is part of a network of radical communities on the border and throughout Mexico, sympathetic with the Zapatista movement. Most residents work in the maquiladoras. Community leader Blanca Enriquez works in the community garden.
