Winter Solstice Reading List

Happy Solstice all…

Subcomandante Insurgente Marcos says:

“If we were to turn back the clock of history, not for a second we would doubt in doing again what we have done. One time, one thousand times we would say again: ‘Ya Basta, Enough.’”

from: “¡YA BASTA!: Ten Years Of The Zapatista Uprising”
(now available from AK Press)

Who is Marcos?

“Marcos is gay in San Francisco, black in South Africa, an Asian in Europe, a Chicano in San Ysidro, an anarchist in Spain, a Palestinian in Israel, a Mayan Indian in the streets of San Cristobal, a Jew in Germany, a Gypsy in Poland, a Mohawk in Quebec, a pacifist in Bosnia, a housewife alone on a Saturday night, a single woman on the Metro at 10 p.m., a peasant without land, a gang member in the slums, an unemployed worker, an unhappy student, a Zapatista in the mountains. Marcos is all the exploited, marginalized, and oppressed, resisting and saying, ‘Ya Basta!’”
