Summary: A movement of Now.
Comment: Too often those of us who seek social justice for people who have been traditionally oppressed tend to just reminisce on the past.
However, this book proves that there is a great social movement that ordinary people CAN , RIGHT NOW make a diffrence about
The history of Mexico, like the history of Latin America, is a history of pain, struggle, and exploitation.
Marcos shows us a movement that seeks to right some of the wrong, and leads a movement of the oldest of the old, the oppressed of the oppressed: Indigenous campesinos (farmers) of Southern Mexico. Where pictures of Jesus Christ stand right there alongside of.....Che Guevara.
A people that have been traditionally been treated like dirt, for lack of a better word, now taking an inspirational and highly moving stand and demand an end to exploitation and a better way of life.
Through their charismatic and briliant leader, Marcos, he tells us the story of the people known as Zapatistas and their struggle for dignity.
The dignity of a people no longer willing to tolerate centuries of injustice.
What human being cannot be moved by such extroadinary courage?

Summary: A must to read!
Comment: How can anyone read el subcommandante and not be moved? How can anyone just look at the plight of these people in Mexico and not feel rage at the injustice?
Rating: 5
Summary: this is what a best seller should contain!
Comment: I have sporadically read and been inspired by the writings of El Sup over the last few years - his poetic brilliance, his lyrical poignancy to strike a blow while planting seeds - and to see the collected works of this remarkable thinker and revolutionary is simply incredible. I encourage anyone who is involved in a struggle, anyone who seeks light in an increasingly dark world, and anyone who believes that a better world is still possible, to get this book. Not a cover to cover read, but an activist manual, a delicious serving brain food and heart food. Again, simply wonderful.
