We read and analyze the short story written by Zapatista Subcomandante Marcos titled “The Glass to See to the Other Side” in which the revolutionary beetle Don Durito says goodbye to Mexico City. It’s a great commentary on the isolation, individualism, and other ills of neoliberal capitalism. The story can be found in a book of Marcos’ work “Our Word is Our Weapon.”
Jared provides a detailed historical context of the Zapatista movement.
