Hello. I'm a student at Sonoma State University and doing some research for a paper on the above. After some reading, I still have some questions. Please respond asap...and if you have any additional information that would be helpful, I would really ap preciate it! Thanks in advance.1. From my reading I've found that it is not that uncommon that both Mexican and indigenous women are involved in revolutionary movements. Is there something that makes Chiapas unique?2. I've read that the involvement of women is somewhere near 30%. What is that in terms of actual numbers, and are these women in support or combat roles, or a combination of both?3. Why is Marcos the only one who speaks for the EZLN? Why not a woman?4. Is this also a class struggle bet ween Ladino and Mayan women, or is there support from Ladino women as well?
