BEYOND RESISTANCE, EVERYTHING!
An interview with Subcomandante Insurgente Marcos, EZLN.
Book launch
September 6th, 1pm
JURA BOOKS
440 Parramatta Rd, Petersham
*********** El Kilombo Collective in North Carolina
The writers of the book formed as a collective around the war on Iraq. Influenced by the Zapatista struggle, they opened a community space in their town Durham. They actively followed the Other Campaign in Mexico from 2005 to 2006, and have now published this awesome and rare interview with Subcomandante Insurgente Marcos.
********** Via live video link up, the Centre for Political Analysis and Socio-economic investigations (CAPISE) in Chiapas, Mexico will be talking about the latest attacks on Zapatista communities, paramilitary organisation in Chiapas and militarization in line with neoliberal reforms and the free trade agenda in the region.
********** MASN will also give a reportback on the current situation in Mexico, where the Other Campaign is at and what progress has been made, political prisoners from Atenco (whove just been sentenced) and the recent attacks against the Zapatistas. And we are keen to discuss what we can do in terms of solidarity from Australia!
There´ll be books for sale, all funds raised will go to the Zapatista Good Government Councils.
Please dont be late, due to the link-ups with Mexico and the US the crew over there will be up very late at night to talk with us!
 This unique interview with the Zapatista spokesperson and military commander, Subcomandante Insurgente Marcos, was created and conducted by a community assembly in Durham, North Carolina, as a direct conversation between people in struggle in the United States and the EZLN. A year into the Zapatista Other Campaign in Mexico, this conversation marks a moment of change and transformation in how the EZLN has seen and spoken about the possibility of alternative politics in the US and the role of migrants, people of color, and others from below in creating such a politics. |
