Black Bridge International is a "decentralized anarchist mutual aid network" set up to facilitate the sharing of resources and information.
Like other anarchist organizations, Black Bridge rejects hierarchy and has no leaders. In contrast to anarchist federations, however, Black Bridge is a web and has no platform or traditional membership.
Black Bridge has nodes in North America, South America (including Bolivia and Brazil), and Eastern Europe (including Bulgaria and Latvia).
In 2003, an affiliated collective in New York City produced a Black Bridge documentary entitled "Bolivia Calling".
The Black Bridge network was initiated by anarchists in the United States and is sometimes characterized as part of an "anti-organizationalist" tendency.
Anarchist journalist and documentarian Brad Will worked with the international in South America before his death in Oaxaca, Mexico.

“Oh, who will now be able to relate how Pantagruel behaved in face of these three hundred giants! Oh my muse, my Calliope, my Thalie, inspire me now, restore my spirits, because here is the ass’s bridge of logic, here is the pitfall, here is the difficulty of being able to describe the horrible battle undertaken.”
