Details
-------
The speaker will open by presenting the Zapatistas' view of NAFTA
as the final straw leading to their uprising in Chiapas (Mexico).
He will then review key events that took place between January 1,
1994 and the present, including the Zapatista caravan from Chiapas
to Mexico City in February-March 2001. (He accompanied the caravan
through all eleven states.) Before opening up the discussion for
questions, the speaker will talk about his personal experience in
Mexico, where he spent a month in rural, indigenous communities.
(Members of Tonantzin -- the Boston Committee to Support the Native
Peoples of Mexico -- will also be on hand to offer expertise and
insight as the need arises.)
This event is organized by the MIT Department of Urban Studies
and Planning.
