Unfortunately. most social change in the Americas has been predicated on violence. We cannot ignore the fact that this conflict didnt start on January 1. 1994. It started about 400 years ago. and a history of economic and political deprivation has made this region a boiling cauldron of resentment and anger. It is not so unlike what American Indians faced in the recent history of this Nation. The Indians of Chiapas have never had political power. They have suffered for centuries at the hands of new immigrants who took their land away. For many natives of Chiapas. NAFTA was Just the latest nail in the coffin.
