Zapatista women offer solidarity to women in struggle across the world
FEMALE Zapatista activists have issued a defiant rallying call in solidarity with the international women’s struggle, despite being unable to hold a special conference in Mexico.
They published an open letter to “women who fight all over the world” as the Second International Meeting of Women Who Fight in Zapatista lands was called off.
“Zapatista women do not sell, and do not give up,” the letter promised, as they vowed to continue the fight for freedom so that “the story of our grandmothers’ pain will not be suffered by our daughters and granddaughters.
