Zapatismo’s 30th anniversary

I just read Zapatismo at 30: An Indigenous Rights Movement Faces Perilous Times. Their seven principles of “obeying by following,”, stood out for me (further described in English here):

1. To obey, not command
2. To propose, not impose
3. To represent, not supplant
4. To convince, not conquer
5. To construct, not destroy
6. To serve others, not serve oneself
7. To work from below, not seek to rise

Despite the rise of the political left in Mexico, the Zapatistas face significant challenges today from drug cartels and displacement.

I found the article particularly useful in describing what the Zapatistas have accomplished locally and what they have inspired internationally.
