Support Community Education and Literacy!

In these autonomous schools, curriculum from literacy to mathematics is rooted in their own language and in the world as they see it. Questions and materials arise from lived experience, as opposed to State-imposed textbooks. History starts with one’s own place in the world. Science starts with observations in one’s own milpa.

From that line of thinking, the problems we need to solve do not get solved from above, but from below and to the left. Our solutions come from our collective efforts within. This is how we transform our relationships, society and the world.
Thank you for supporting autonomous education.

LET US SUPPOSE, WITHOUT CONCEDING...

El Capitán Marcos addresses the racist factory of culprits and the case of José Díaz.

"Then you could conclude that, if you were not indigenous, if you were not a Zapatista and if you were not critical of the government in office, you would be free and would not have wasted two years of your life?"
LET US SUPPOSE, WITHOUT CONCEDING...
