Description

The Other Campaign is a collection of texts by Subcomandante Marcos and his Zapatista compañeros that articulate a vision for “change from below,” a call to create social change beyond the limits of electoral politics. As Mexico approaches the presidential elections, Marcos and supporters are touring the country in an effort to build a broad-based movement. The book includes a recent interview with Marcos and speeches made by Zapatista comandantes, as well as the Zapatistas’ “Sixth Declaration of the Lacandón Jungle,” which places the indigenous struggle for democracy in its historical context and articulates an evolving vision for democracy, dignity, and justice.Subcomandante Marcos is a spokesperson and strategist for the Zapatistas. - from Amzon
