La Otra San Diego

La Otra Campaña springs from the Sixth Declaration of the Lacandon jungle better known as the Sexta. The declaration resulted from the nearly month-long red alert that occurred in June 2005, where the EZLN closed its bases in retreat for internal consultation.

The text of the Sexta calls for a different approach in politics where different sectors of society will be united in movement for social change. Previously an indigenous peasant movement, the Zapatistas propose to bring together workers, rural and urban poor, people of oppressed sexual identities, teachers, students, other indigenous groups, NGOs, cooperatives and collectives and independent individuals.

La Otra San Diego is put together by local collectives, organizations and individuals that follow this calling and adhere to the Otra Campaña and apply it to our local communities.
