Chiapas
The Mexican government has undertaken a campaign of genocide
against the indigenous people of Chiapas, in southeast Mexico. Using
U.S. trained mercenaries, with U.S. economic and political support,
Mexico's federal army terrorizes the people of Chiapas, while the
U.S. media turns a blind eye. Human rights violations, torture, rape
and murder have been reported by many international observers,
community leaders arrested, food supplies contaminated, entire
villages destroyed. Please take
Subcommander
Marcos's tour of Chiapas to
learn more about the situation and browse Ejercito Zapatista
Liberacion Nacional for current updates of the struggle and to
find out what specifically you can do. (Original Photo by Frida Hartz of the La
