Interview with Subcommandante Marcos
GUEST: Subcommandante Marcos, interviewed by FSRN Anchor Aura Bogado
More than ten years after launching an armed rebellion that captivated millions across the world, the Zapatista Army of National Liberation—or EZLN in Spanish— is once more the focus of activists and media. They are calling the new direction simply, “The Other Campaign.” It is an attempt to mobilize the millions of disenfranchised indigenous and working class people in Mexico, to convince them to abandon the country’s political parties and take direct action. At the heart of the campaign is the enigmatic and charismatic leader of the Zapatistas, Subcommandante Marcos. Last week Free Speech Radio News Anchor Aura Bogado spoke with Marcos in an exclusive one-on-one interview at the Center for the Documentation of Son Jarocho in Jaltipan, Veracruz.
This interview was first played as part of a 3-part series on Free Speech Radio News. For more information, visit www.fsrn.org. The entire interview, including a never-before heard portion will be published in the upcoming book, “The Other Campaign, The Zapatista Call for Change”, by Subcomandante Marcos. It will be published by City Lights Books, in April, 2006.
