Since I was out of the blogosphere during the past 20 days, I have many things to blog about.
The first is that I’ve been in Chiapas (Mexico) for new year holidays. New year’s eve in a Zapatista village (La Garrucha). I’ll blog about what this revolution means for me and the world later. For now I just publish the link to photos.
The sign in the photos reads: “esta usted en territorio zapatista en rebeldia aqui manda el pueblo y el gobierno obedece” meaning “You are in Zapatista lands in rebellion, here the people rule and the government obeys”
Uhè!! Finalmente riappari! ormai non provavo più nemmeno a passare. Bentornato e complimenti per le belle foto e per l’album, anche se però devo dedicare un po’ di tempo in più per rivederle tutte con calma. Ciao
Hi, we are working in a project from the Ministry of Education of Argentina and we need to contact the person who take the pic PIC01348 (“Está usted en territorio…”). Please, contact us by email to have a short conversation. Thanks,
Rafael Blanco
Documentalista
