A journalistic account of the Zapatista uprising in Chiapas, told through both local life and international politics. It follows issues of Indigenous land, autonomy, and violence as they unfold on the ground.
Work Information
A report on the Chiapas uprising that keeps both local urgency and political context in view.
Moving across the background of the uprising, its daily actions, and the political situation in and beyond Mexico, John Ross tracks the movement on the ground. The rebellion is framed not as an isolated event but as a collision of land, ethnicity, the nation-state, and global economics.
