Report on Registration for the Seminar “The Critical Thought versus the Capitalist Hydra” SupGaleano
Zapatista Army for National Liberation

To the compas of the Sixth:
To the presumed attendees of the Seminar “Critical Thought Versus the Capitalist Hydra”:
We want to let you know that:
As of April 21, 2015, the number of people who have registered for the seminar “Critical Thought Versus the Capitalist Hydra” is approximately 1,074 men, women, others,i children, and elderly from Mexico and the world. Of this number:
558 people are adherents of the Sixth.
430 people are not adherents of the Sixth
82 people say they are from the free, autonomous, independent, alternative, or whatever-you-call-it media.
4 people are from the paid media (only one person from the paid media has been rejected, it was one of the three who were sponsored by the Chiapas state government to sully the name of the Zapatista compa professor Galeano and present his murderers as victims.)
Now then, we don’t know if among those 1,074 who have registered so far there might be a portion who have gotten confused and think that they have registered for Señorita Anahí’s weddingii (apparently she’s marrying somebody from Chiapas, I’m not sure, but pay me no mind because here the world of politics and entertainment are easily confused… ah! There too? Didn’t I tell you?)
Anyway, I’m sharing the number of attendees because it’s many more than we had expected would attend the seminar/seedbed. Of course now that’s CIDECI’s problem, so… good luck!
What? Can people can still register? I think so, I’m not sure. When questioned by Los Tercios Compas, doctor Raymundo responded “no problem at all, in any case the number of people who will actually pay attention are far fewer.” Okay, okay, okay, he didn’t say that, but given the context he could have. What’s more, not even the doc knows how many people are going to come to CIDECI.

Las Margaritas Chiapas. 16 de abril. “En pocas palabras hermanos: los ejidatarios de la Cioac-h de Miguel Hidalgo, nos lo llevaron todo, lo han robado todo y lo que no les sirve, lo han quemado”, denuncian familias indígenas tojolabales, desplazadas de la comunidad Primero de Agosto, el pasado 23 de febrero por parte de la Central Independiente de Obreros Agrícolas y Campesinos Histórica (Cioac-H). “Nos están enterrando en vida, nos quieren matar solo porque nosotros queremos mantener a nuestras familias produciendo la tierra”, externan desde su campamento, en el marco del 96 aniversario luctuoso del General Emiliano Zapata.
En conferencia de prensa, los habitantes del municipio de las Margaritas exponen los antecedentes de su problemática y recuerdan que el ocho de diciembre de 2011, en una reunión con ejidatarios de Miguel Hidalgo y las 17 familias ahora de Primero de Agosto, “dimos a conocer nuestras razones ante la asamblea, peticionando que necesitamos trabajar las tierras que estaban baldíos (predio el Roble), para mantener a nuestras familias. Después de diversas reuniones, los ejidatarios de Miguel Hidalgo cerraron el diálogo, diciéndonos que a partir de entonces ya no pertenecíamos a dicha comunidad”.
