25 Years of the Zapatista Movement

Tracey Eaton, then a correspondent for the Dallas Morning News, reported on the Zapatistas, black-masked rebels, who briefly revolted against the Mexican government in 1994. Jared Olson reported on them nearly a quarter of a century later, in summer 2018, two decades into their experiment of autonomous self-organization and non-violent resistance. Together, they share experiences with the movement as well as insights into their ramifications for Mexican society, political change, and the nature of social movements.
