Voices from within, the Chiapas Media Project

PHOTO: Zapatista comandantes speak at the Indigenous Congress in Michoacan, Mexico in 2001. They were protected by the "white monkeys", wearing white overalls who linked arms and formed a circle around them as they moved through the crowds on the Zapatista caravan for indigenous rights through the towns of central Mexico. The Zapatistas, indigenous rights, music and the arts were the central focus of films from the Chiapas Media Project which showed in Flagstaff in March.
