These individuals are the \u201cstrong arm\u201d of the region\u2019s dominant political parties. They have of late revealed their plan to displace our sisters and brothers of the Zapatista support base. According to recent threats, these enemies of the people intend to kidnap Zapatista community authorities and, in turn, violently displacing other Zapatistas from their community. They have stated, additionally, that they will incarcerate anyone who continues to denounce these unjust aggressions.<\/p>\n<p>We stress here that these attacks are not isolated incidents, but rather are integral components of the prolonged war of extermination that the bad government of Mexico, together with capitalist interests, has carried out for the past 18 years to wipe out the Zapatista movement and all it has given to the world.   The objectives of this war have been and remain to continue the colonial project and destroy at any cost indigenous autonomy and resistance, and take over their ancestral lands, and in this way, exploit for the exclusive benefit of those from above the natural resources with which our Mother Earth provides us.  Repression, violence, and death are meted out by the bad government of Mexico to those who resist this, who defend their lands, their identities, their cultures, and autonomy \u2013 their very existence.  The Zapatista ejido and community of <strong>San Marcos Avil\u00e9s<\/strong>, which is made up of Tzeltal indigenous people, has endured an unending nightmare of terror since 2010, when the community\u2019s autonomous school, \u201cEmiliano Zapata,\u201d was constructed as part of the Zapatista Rebel Education System\u2014constituting a major step forward in the community\u2019s advance towards autonomy. During the past two years, this community has suffered various forms of extreme violence, including death threats, harassment, plunder, sexual aggression (including attempted rapes), forced displacement, and others, at the hands of members of the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI), Party of the Democratic Revolution (PRD), and the Green Ecological Party (PVEM) of Mexico, and their armed attack groups.  Similarly, our compa\u00f1ero <strong>Francisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez<\/strong>, also an indigenous Tzeltal-speaker and Zapatista from Chiapas, has remained unjustly imprisoned since December 4, 2011, for false crimes that he never committed. His only \u201ccrime\u201d is that of being a member of the Zapatista support base. Today he remains a hostage of the bad government of Mexico in its war against all Zapatistas.   It is clear that the violence exercised against both <strong>San Marcos Avil\u00e9s <\/strong>and <strong>Francisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez<\/strong> stems from that same source.   Recently, community members of <strong>San Marcos Avil\u00e9s<\/strong> have reported that the threats against them have spiked at an alarming rate during the past few days.   In light of these acts of violence and aggression, we would like to propose the following plan of solidarity and struggle, as part of the \u201cWorldwide Echo in Support of the Zapatistas: Freedom and Justice for San Marcos Avil\u00e9s and S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez.\u201d   This campaign is distinguished for its \u201ctwo-pronged\u201d strategy, and will consist of two interrelated phases.  <strong>FIRST PHASE:<br \/>\nWalking the True Word: Promotion and Circulation<br \/>\nTimeframe: Entire month of August <\/strong> The first phase, which is called \u201c<strong>Walking the True Word<\/strong>,\u201d will span the entire month of August and has as its principal objective the dissemination of information within our respective communities, neighborhoods, ejidos, networks, and countries regarding the current situation of absolute injustice occurring in <strong>San Marcos Avil\u00e9s<\/strong> and the case of the unjust imprisonment of <strong>Francisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez<\/strong>.   To this end, we propose that around the world, from the smallest community to the largest metropolis, we concentrate our organizing efforts and resources on raising consciousness in our communities and networks by forming <strong><em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Committees of the True Word<\/span><\/em><\/strong> as a way to effectively disseminate critical information regarding the current situation of <strong>San Marcos Avil\u00e9s <\/strong>and the unjust incarceration of <strong>Francisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez<\/strong>.  \u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 These <strong>\u201cCommittees of the True Word\u201d<\/strong> will serve as seeds that will sprout roots in distinct and common lands to grow consciousness, knowledge, and more than anything, rage and inspiration to take concrete action in support of our sisters and brothers of <strong>San Marcos Avil\u00e9s<\/strong> and <strong>Franisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Each committee will seek to disseminate and promote widely the current situation of <strong>San Marcos Avil\u00e9s<\/strong> and <strong>Francisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez<\/strong>, as they are both are Zapatista support base members. Of particular priority is reaching out to people who are unfamiliar with the history of the Zapatistas. Everyone should know this history of profound pain, hope, and inspiration.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It is not necessary to belong to an organization or collective. In this campaign, we can all form a committee on our own and be supportive.\u00a0 Committees can be formed with friends, co-workers, neighbors, or relatives.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 If you are already a member of an organization, association, collective, labor union, group, team, club, etc., you can form your own committee with your fellow members.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 During this first phase, to be clear, the <strong>Committees of the True Word<\/strong> can organize a wide range of activities to accomplish our goal. Among the numerous options include: public forums, distributing informative fliers and pamphlets, teach-ins, publishing articles, reflections, and denouncements, translations, social media initiatives, artistic works, etc. The possibilities are endless.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 We invite all those from below to come together to support our Zapatista sisters and brothers of <strong>San Marcos Avil\u00e9s<\/strong> and our brother <strong>Francisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez<\/strong> who are all fighting for our shared liberation.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Form your Committee of the True Word now!   \u00a0  As soon as you have formed your committee, please let us know what activities you intend to carry out and the location of the committee via email at:  \u00a0  \u00a0<a href=\"mailto:laotranuevayork@yahoo.com\" target=\"_blank\">laotranuevayork@yahoo.com<\/a>.   We believe that the true word and knowledge are very important for the struggles of those from below\u2014it is not only the task of the independent\/alternative media to circulate truth, but rather it is the responsibility of us all to do so.   Moreover, we believe that this phase of consciousness-raising is particularly important, especially in light of the fact that our compas from <strong>San Marcos Avil\u00e9s<\/strong> are suffering this violence for being indigenous, for being Zapatistas, and for having opened their autonomous school. Education and knowledge are also tools and weapons in the struggle for justice, dignity, and democracy\u2014they are nothing less than the forms in which we will construct this new world we seek.  As such, in this campaign, education on <strong>San Marcos Avil\u00e9s<\/strong> and <strong>Francisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez<\/strong> will serve as another way in which we rebel against this system of injustice and oppression, which oppresses at the level of knowledge as well. We shall make use of what those from above seek to repress in order to achieve what we are fighting for: \u201ca dignified justice.\u201d  To facilitate the expansion of this phase, we would like to offer a few small tools:  1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 As some of you may know, we have produced a new and moving video message from the compas of <strong>San Marcos Avil\u00e9s<\/strong>, which is available here:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=rY-8CBt3Vkg\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=rY-8CBt3Vkg<\/a><br \/>\nPlease contact us if you wish to obtain a high quality version of the video suitable for public screenings.<\/p>\n<p>2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 We also put together a new website in English and Spanish with web pages with content in French, Italian, German and Japanese and with updates, reports, and important information, and other educational materials on <strong>San Marcos Avil\u00e9s<\/strong> and <strong>Francisco S\u00e1ntiz L\u00f3pez<\/strong>. The website is available here:   \u00a0  <a href=\"http:\/\/sanmarcosavilesen.wordpress.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/sanmarcosavilesen.wordpress.com\/<\/a> Following the lead of the community of <strong>San Marcos<\/strong> <strong>Avil\u00e9s<\/strong> and the Good Government Council, the goal of this phase is to imbue with knowledge the hearts of as many people as possible, and to bring awareness to the world regarding the constant government-backed violence and the resistance of the dignified people.  <strong>Immediately after this intensive educational phase, there will be a phase of direct action.<\/strong> Alongside our Zapatista sisters and brothers of <strong>San Marcos Avil\u00e9s<\/strong> and of the Good Government Council of Oventic, we echo their just demands:   \u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 AN END TO THE WAR AGAINST THE ZAPATISTAS OF SAN MARCOS AVIL\u00c9S.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 IMMEDIATE FREEDOM FOR OUR ZAPATISTA COMPA\u00d1ERO FRANCISCO S\u00c1NTIZ L\u00d3PEZ.  The gravity of these two situations cannot be ignored. As part of the global struggle for justice, dignity, and democracy, we must respond with open hearts.   \u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 If you accept our proposal and will participate in this campaign, please let us know as soon as possible via email at<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:laotranuevayork@yahoo.com\" target=\"_blank\">laotranuevayork@yahoo.com<\/a>.   Likewise, please write and send us chronicles of each activity that is carried out via your Committee of the True Word. We will circulate all report backs on the activities realized as part of this campaign, so as to expand the scope and reach of our struggle. We will also share these reports with the community of <strong>San Marcos Avil\u00e9s<\/strong> and the Good Government Council, so that they stay updated and know that they are not alone.
