PROTEST AGAINST THE EXPULSIONS OF INDIGENOUS PEOPLES IN THE MONTES AZULES BIORESERVE
9 YEARS ON THE STRUGGLE IN CHIAPAS CONTINUES
Indigenous communities in the Montes Azules bio-reserve are being threatened with expulsion and are being terrorised by both the Mexican government as well as right wing paramilitaries. Montes Azules is a region that is central to the Plan Puebla Panama. The PPP is an American sponsored, $20 billion, 25 year industrial development and transportation infrastructure project which includes plans to build new highways, ports, gas grids, hydroelectric projects, agricultural modernization and the expansion of sweat shop labour into Chiapas all for the interests of multinational capital and at the expense of the impoverished indigenous communities of Chiapas and causing much environmental destruction.
9 YEARS ON WE ARE STILL ALL ZAPATISTAS
Whilst all the worlds focus is on the colonisation of Iraq by the US and UK; and the racist apartheid system in Israel, do not forget the racist apartheid in Mexico and the colonisation of Indigenous peoples.
