"To sell the Land, it would be to sell our mother", that fullfill the thought of a representative of the Council of Good Government, in the table of Land and Territory, that took place the afternoon of first of January. And it is that to say, for the zapatistas the "mother earth" is the inheritance of their ancestros and practically the only way to survive. Therefore, during three hours l@s zapatistas explained the importance of the control and ownership of the Earth, as well as its efforts to defend the land recovered in the 1994 from paramilitary aggressions and neoliberal plans like the PROCEDE.
The circumstances are different in each Caracoles, because while in the Highland is scarce and is very little fertile, in the warmest Caracoles as Morelia or Roberto Districts there is more land and different cultures, but the pressure of the "bad government" is much greater. On the one hand, the companer@s has denounced the threats of eviction that have undergone in Aguazul and neighboring communities, and by another one they have explained the resistance to the PROCEDE, a governmental plan that it tries "to clear the land of the ejidatarios and the community goods", through land division and the imposition of monoculture.
Another one of the flags of fight in this question is the resistance to the pesticide and the transgénics seeds, that damage the Land and its fruits and force the dependency towards corporations. For that reason, in Robert Districts they have implemented a center of qualification in agroecology that allows to improve the Land yield by means of natural techniques.
After the intervention of the Council, the Consejo National Indigena invited all the original inigenous people to add to the autonomy and resistance to "Capitalism and its governors, guilty of the poverty, repression and extermination of our communities". Also they dedicated a words to the political prisoners of the Cucurah community () in danger of extinction after that for months they hasn't been allow to fish, its only source of sustanibility.
Next we could listen to the word of compañer@s worldwide that fights day to day by for the ownership of the Land which they work and they explained us their experiences of agrarian distribution and colectivización. "Land is not for sale, it has to be work and defended"
