She meets March 8th with her face erased, and her name
hidden. With her come thousands of women. More and more arrive. Dozens,
hundreds, thousands, millions of women who remember all over the world
that there is much to be done and remember that there is still much
to fight for. It appears that that thing called dignity is
contagious and it is women who are more likely to become infected with
this uncomfortable malaise...

| Welcome to a creative, exploratory space. This is an
arena of discussion,
collaboration, challenge, education and participation. We have opened this
door for you to enter and meet one another, in honor of the women who
have offered their lives to the Zapatista movement.
We have seen that there are people throughout the world who are
inspired by the courage and perspicacity of Zapatista women. Others
who are perplexed and challenged by the complexities of the
revolutionary articulations of women many times removed from our reality.
This is an attempt to bring us together, so that we may learn from and
with each other.
You are invited to contribute resources and to engage in
discussion here. Your questions and
concerns, interests, ideas, views and recommendations make this a
dynamic forum. Papers, artwork, photographs, interviews,
fieldwork, journal entries, recordings, video files, animations,
poems and other creative or academic endeavors are gratefully accepted
here. Should you wish to contribute, you can
submit your work
for inclusion in this web site, or you can direct others to your work by
submitting a message to the
forum.
Thank you for joining the table.
