Quiqui presented the ways the Zapatistas organize focusing on the 7 Principles of Mandar Obedeciendo/Govern by Obeying, Power Circulation of Above and Below vs Horizontality, Identity, Class and Context in the U.S. With the example of how these are being practiced at the Eastside Cafe consensus process inspired by Urban Zapatismo.

Quiqui is a popular educator, geographer, writer, and translator of Maya roots, organizing from Chumash lands toward a world where many worlds fit. Her does a lot of feeling-thinking about our liberation movements, and of great interest to her is preventing ourselves from becoming the monsters we fight.
