BOOK / DAYS OF RAGE AND REBELLION. Bárbara Zamora López

History

Days of Rage and Rebellion narrates some of the moments that forever changed Mexico: the 1994 Zapatista armed uprising, the protests and civil society initiatives around the world demanding peace, a ceasefire, the dialogue between the rebels and the government, the betrayal of peace, the negotiations for the signing of the San Andrés Accords, and the inclusion of the word "indigenous" in the Constitution. It is the social, political, and legal history of Mexico told, in the first person and through historically important photographic documents and archives, by one of its protagonists: Bárbara Zamora, advisor to the EZLN during the San Andrés talks, an independent lawyer who has always remained faithful to the causes of the most vulnerable, the marginalized, the seemingly defeated, the silenced. This book is a testimony so that our memory does not disappear, so that those who were not yet born in those troubled times know how far it is possible to go, that combat is not rage and rebellion, but the testimony of a counter-history: the time in which the defeated, the exterminated, those buried five hundred years ago, rose up, covered their bodies with the wounds of all the original peoples of the earth, interrupted the death clock of the victors, lit the fuse of hope and rebellion, and made them explode, forever changing the course of time and history.
