CASA has just published a new book, Teaching Rebellion: Stories from the Grassroots Mobilization in Oaxaca. Members of the CASA Chapulín collective in Oaxaca have been working tirelessly to compile this diverse and powerful collection of first-person narratives, complemented by truly stunning photography.
The book tour kicked off in LA, at an event celebrating the International Day of Indigenous Resistance. Next stop is the Bay Area.
The tour aims to foster dialogue among activists from Oaxaca and the U.S. around organizing strategies and movement building based on the experiences of Oaxacan organizers, who brought together labor, indigenous, women's, youth, and neighborhood organizations to build a powerful movement for democracy and accountability in 2006.
