[URBANTH-L]ANN: The Zapatista World Festival of Dignified Rage

[Angela Jancius]

>From RJ <rj at riseup.net>

Dear Friends and Compañeros,

The first World Festival of Dignified Rage is just around the corner --
beginning this Friday in Mexico City.

Whether or not you are planning on going, I definitely recommend this
updated piece just finished by Kolya Abramsky that I've posted here:
http://zapagringo.blogspot.com/2008/12/gathering-our-dignified-rage.html

It's both a primer on the organizing that has taken place over the past
three and a half years since the Zapatistas released their Sixth
Declaration of the Lacandon Jungle and a proposal on where we need to head
in the context of our global crises... a rewrite of an earlier piece
updated for the current context and in preparation for the First Global
Festival of Dignified Rage, which begins in Mexico City at the end of this
week.

Enjoy,
RJ
