 OUR CULTURE IS OUR RESISTANCE
Repression, Refuge, and Healing in Guatemala
Photographs by Jonathon Moller, preface by Rigoberta Menchú
"Guatemala is a country of beauty and nightmare, horror and courage. Jonathon Moller captures its complexity perfectly through his lens and his words. Drawing upon years of personal experience as well as that of Guatemalans themselves who have been the victims of the nightmare and the bearers of the beauty, he offers us a point of entry into a world many will never have seen before. To enter that world is invariably to be changed-- to be both engulfed by regret and inspired by the promise of a new tomorrow. Moller is an uncompromising guide and those who follow his lead will be gorever in his debt." - William F. Schultz, Executive Director, Amnesty International USA

 ¡Ya
Basta! 10 Years Of The Zapatista Uprising:
Writings by Subcomandante Insurgente Marcos
Forewords by Noam Chomsky and Naomi Klein, Edited by Ziga Vodovnik
"The Zapatista uprising in Chiapas was certainly
one of the most dramatic and important instances in our time of a genuine
grassroots movement against oppression. In this volume, the writings
of Subcomandante Marcos give eloquent expression to this movement, revealing
both its philosophical foundations and its tactical ingenuity. I believe
his words and the statements of the Zapatistas can inspire a new generation
of activists and let them understand that it is possible for ordinary
people, without military power, without wealth, to challenge state power
successfully on behalf of social justice." -Howard Zinn

 Dangerous
Memories
Invasion and Resistance Since 1492
edited by Renny Golden, Michael McConnell, etal
"This is a dangerous book: it imperils long-accepted fictions
and half-truths about the ‘discovery’ of the ‘new
world.’ It is bottom-up history challenging the trickle-down versions
we have so long been spoon-fed. The work of Eduardo Galeano comes to
mind; Dangeour Memories has the same revelatory excitement." —Studs
