" He and Mariana Forests, spoke of the expected hardening of the repression. As Mariana said "right now and we have to be on this side, repression is stronger, we must be together to resist and we have to attack, because it uses only resist. We will not stop until the release of all "during the reunion did not stop shouting slogans for the freedom of l @ s pres @ s policies and the continuation of the struggle in Atenco.

What Extesions Does Rihanna Use

Third meeting: Zapatista women with women around the world (listen live broadcast aki)

(day three)

"It is difficult express how they feel a man at a gathering of women " tells a fellow" I felt I was in the wrong place at the wrong time. As I walked through the aisle of the auditorium to give a camera to my companion, I felt the weight of eyes on my back, they were never aggressive, but they were there ... all eyes were enough to wish to rush out of there as soon as possible. I immediately came to mind, although not comparable, the idea of \u200b\u200bhow a woman feels when entering a bar full of men, or when walking through the streets and incisive eyes do not rub off them. " The auditorium we speak is full of women and listen to the presentations of the companions, that follow to complete a mosaic of experiences through their different ages, situations and municipalities. Only in the last row some men have occupied positions between banks. A colleague, with the acronym EZLN in balaclavas, the up explaining that only women are allowed to enter the auditorium, that men can hear the words of the sisters from the outside. Without opposition, either by conviction or by not daring to break the rule, the men one by one the seats are removed, leaving only female presence in the room. As time went by, This standard ceased to be so rigid. However, it is an image that reflects well the heart of this gathering of Zapatista women with women in the world. Entering
caracol of La Garrucha a sign announces: "Men can only participate in, making food, sweeping, cleaning latrines and snails, care for the @ s @ s Niñ firewood." This round of tortilla to the deep-rooted gender roles globally, is a challenge that the partners intend to @ s Zapatistas assistants approached. This would have created a space where women are forced to talk and men to listen.
This practice, far from being discriminatory, learning is more of a gender that challenges the everyday sexist, which is a huge effort for both sexes since hitting squarely on what seems most difficult to transform: the roles with which we have grown, the enemy within so many puts obstacles in breaking the dominance of humanity's oldest, patriarchy. Thus, women have fought hard to try to win public spaces and decided to speak in the sight of a packed auditorium, bringing them the lead in the media, in the organization, in moderation or in cultural activities. "After these words read so easy there is a whole river of tears," said a companion. Tears of effort triply exploited peasant women (because women, being poor, being indigenous) have been transformed into a victory, the victory of progress on the path to empowerment. Men have had to be done with the tasks normally invisible, to see the difficulty that carry and to learn from the humility of being quiet, listening and resist the urge to make visible through the floor, which is ultimately cede once, the public space, supporting in silence from the kitchen. In this way the Zapatista women holding hands with men in what they are delayed, and men go hand turn with their partners helping, to the point where we can speak with facts that the horizontal and equity are possible, the best example was the third meeting dedicated to women. Now we have the task of sharing in our hometowns and we discussed what we heard in this land free, ie
Zapatista Land For all this, the meeting was a big step for the Zapatista women, who these days have been found with themselves, with their pain, their tears, their histories and their hopes for change, they can share the links with the rest of the world's women, the oppression of patriarchy. However, the road to be traveling companions Zapatistas together with its partners, towards gender equality is presented as long and expensive, so we can see the same sign which reads the work of men, it also announced that they are kept on 29, 30 and December 31, to return to normal on 1 January ...
Maybe that normally macho self again back to the community or the city, but this meeting did not leave anyone indifferent, a seed of change were planted in default fertile hearts of men and women who were here, whom we also have a long way to go, that of deconstruction, a journey that must be done together but in many cases, as in the case of this meeting of women, with separate steps.

Third meeting: Zapatista women with women around the world (listen live broadcast aki)


"We say, for they are clear that the fight is long and difficult" (second day)

silent steps of the Zapatistas come sorted, to the right side of the auditorium of Caracol Hope Towards a new dawn. December 30 marks the second day of the First Encounter of the Zapatista Women with Women of the World.

On the day they celebrate the exhibition of the progress in the work of women from the Caracol of La Realidad and Oventik. Labor unions collective of women artisans, autonomous education, the health of women, working mothers still struggle, the difficulty to assume positions of responsibility in their communities and regions, both into women themselves as to the family context, social and organizational. All themes are defoliating in concrete work, goals and challenges small and large to be overcome.

On the other side of the auditorium are placed women in Mexico and the world that come with their stories and their struggles, pains and joys and observe, to share or express, through questions asked at the table, their doubts and differences.

To learn the stories of these women of the world must stand down at the height of the banks, look for the breaks, ask and listen.
To understand the history that Zapatista women have also need to stand down, follow in the footsteps of fellow silent when at the end of each session will go all together to the place where it may take off their masks and safely share their experiences and struggles in every place, every community, every family, every woman's heart and body.

If we walk in another sense we could go out the back door of the auditorium, the little girl, which gives the place where the sun and the moon rises. There are the shops of the Zapatista families who came to the meeting and, unlike the central area, men do not cook much but the fellow leaning over the stove on the floor, they come to watch the door or the cracks between what happens inside tables and loaded the girls and boys. So if we go around, because although many people are these days with the "other work" in the kitchens and cleaning of the meeting, it seems that it only lasts a few yards and then from there everyone is who is, and the battlefield, one of the battlefields of the Zapatistas seems clear, and can never be reduced to a stove, a child charged with a tiny back child, or a clothes washing and rubbing in River.

From the height of the reality of the communities are best measured the dimensions of the struggle of the Zapatista indigenous women. Women who arrive at the doors and crevices of the meeting to listen to their own colleagues to speak in a language incomprehensible to them (Castilian), are real, the signs on every corner these days remind us that men can not be spokespeople or speakers, and translators, cleaning and cooking but also are real, and so are the women who climb on stage to say who fought with their partners because "some men do not allow us to participate, then we realized that we must take our rights with their hands, because we deserve as human beings "(Member Comandanta CCRI).
all part of the same reality, in an effort to change what more it costs.

When older women have what your life was when girls in the estates where many indigenous families worked as semi slaves, we can understand what the trip, the ground covered by the Zapatista women in a short period of time, short low more than twenty years, in which the grandchildren say "as a child I have freedom to dance, I can play, I have the right to education autonomously." Some women say that "men are very difficult to change, because they are sexist, because the educated English ranchers and to despise women."

own support among women is the catalyst to this process, and that explains the strength and understanding that the Zapatista women speak about the experiences of other women who struggle and suffer, as indigenous women they met while traveling with the Other Campaign in Northern Mexico, the maquiladora workers, the political prisoners, all those with whom they are understood and reflected in the internal and external struggle, in their own organizations and in reality they live.

In the tension between public and private space are giving, with much effort, the dynamics that allow women from the empowerment of many of them in training, community service and strong collective responsibilities, they change their self-image and changing the image that men have of them, so that one day, perhaps soon, and not to ask her husband permission to take a job in the organization, and no one says that the woman who leaves the home without her husband is going to look for another man.

Third meeting: Zapatista women with women around the world (listen live broadcast aki)

"One thing is words, but there is much work behind" (first day)

These last days of December is being held in El Caracol of Resistance Towards a New Dawn (La Garrucha, Chiapas) in the Zapatista Encuentro with the Peoples of the World and First Meeting of the Zapatista Women with Women of the World. "Because here we have corn yellow, black, white, ... we are very happy to be many and different, but one humanity "summed up the Comandanta Rosalinda. Walking through the Caracol, you may find different women at different struggles, Women in Black women trainers and health education in indigenous communities, women of the Peoples Front in Defense of Earth, of Via Campesina, Zapatista women, women the Other Campaign, children, young people from around the world and to men. Though they at this time, according to the organizers of the meeting, do not participate in the plenary sessions, because the voice of women.
During the first day has been about the work of women snails Morelia and La Garrucha. One of the ideas that have been highlighted is that women and communities in resistance will not give up the lands recovered from the 1994 uprising given the paramilitary pressure situation that they currently live. Women have described their struggle to make their voices heard and implement their rights. How a fellow Zapatista said "It sounds simple in words, but behind there work and the cry of many women."
of each snail were involved representatives of the promoters of education, health, Good Government, grandmothers, mothers, girls, married women, single women, female heads collective work of the Agrarian Commission, commanders and insurgents of the EZLN and other partners.
Many older women experience life in the estates where they were forced to work in extreme conditions, no food, no education, no health care and were even sexually assaulted. They explained how this situation changed after 1994 because, as they say "we realized that as women have the same right to learn and defend ourselves."
Education is for them a basic need, one of the Zapatista demands. In government schools felt like rejecting their native language and identity: "These are the ideas of other people do not even know how to live." Promoting education of Morelia. Therefore, many women are trained as promoters of education along with coordinating other training centers and are making autonomous education for all and all, based on partnership, respect and equality that respects their culture, language and identity . "Autonomous education born by all girls and boys, for all women and men. Many made fun of us for being Zapatistas and did not know why, but we do not get discouraged. We want to be taken into account in our words and girls and women, deserve respect for all, women now as we know, we do not want to scorn, humiliation and oblivion, "said an advocate for education of Morelia.
Asked by a woman from civil society about how the relationship between parents and children regarding education, a classmate of the girls who was at the table said that "parents encourage them to strive in school. "
One of the most exciting times of the day was the participation of girls in various plenary sessions where they explain how their fight like girls. One of the girls in the Caracol of La Garrucha said: "Now I'm going to talk about my life. I have eight years. As a child I have the right to do whatever he wants. A study in the schools. My parents encourage me. I have the right to play, dance, walk through this struggle and our elders, to change the lives of mankind. I know the reality, these rights will be my best weapon in the future. At my school sometimes do not find the materials, my parents work to get them. No crumbs cling bad government. "
Health promoters put particular emphasis on working in the existing need for more resources to the specific attention of women. The deaths of women in childbirth and complications before and after it, and cervical cancer were common before 1994, as reported promoters, because of lack of health care of women themselves, the lack of resources to reach hospitals and the poor care they received once there. Also explained how often people do not pay attention to the ailments of women, until they were very serious and there was no chance of being cured. In the women's traditional deliveries were attended by midwives, who usually did not have many means in case of difficulties. When a child was born the midwife charged less than the birth of a child as it was felt that the girl had less value. Much of the work of health promotion is to inform women about care before and after childbirth, and nutrition and sexual health. The promoters used in both traditional medicine and biomedical medicine within the reach of their resources. One of the women of Good Government in the region of Morelia speaks of the need for health promotion for women to have access to it is important that health has partners that they might not receive the treatment of pain to women. "
The micro clinics and nursing homes have been built in Zapatista territory covers the whole world that need not play the same treatment they received and are in hospitals.
"Our duty as women is that there are more women involved" said Ofelia, the Good Government Junta of Morelia, Heart of the Rainbow of Hope. "Our peoples have chosen us to ensure collective and communal interests, a government that commands obedience, seeking equitable development." Women who are in positions as officers (positions of responsibility to the autonomous municipalities, the Good Government etc) are trying to encourage the participation of women at all levels is necessary that we have partners in the production, which are radio announcers broadcaster, which has education educators to have more confidence with girls. There are issues specific to women. They are in charge of the work for equality in every area of \u200b\u200bwork. If we do not, "Who is going to do?". One of the companions of the caracol of La Garrucha, speaking as a representative of single women said that "While we do not know how to read or write, we have knowledge to share. Value and participation that we as single, not exploited and we want to continue to fight for our rights as women "
