Compañeros y compañeras:
Como ustedes saben, muchos de nuestros compañeros presos en ayuno y huelga de hambre fueron liberados el día de ayer, junto con más de un centenar de presos que no participan en la protesta, dentro de un acto mediático que busca engañar y confundir a la opinión pública.

With the modification of article 27 of the constitution by the neoliberal governments, the original people of these lands were condemned to disappear. In 2001 the House of Representatives, Senate, and the Federal Supreme Court refused to recognize the San Andrés Accords, leaving indigenous people with no choice but to exercise their autonomy and their collective rights, including their right to land and territory, by the following: the recuperation of lands that have historically been worked collectively and that represent the seat of mayan culture today.
