DESCRIPTION:Speakers:\n\nJohn Gibler, author of MEXICO UNCONQUERED: CHRONICLES OF POWER 
 AND REVOLT, published this month by City Lights Books: 
 http://www.citylights.com \n\nDiego Osorno, author of 'Oaxaca Sitiada: La 
 primera insurrección del siglo XXI' ('Besieged Oaxaca : La primera 
 insurreccion del siglo XXI/ The First Insurrection Of the XXI Century', not 
 yet available in English).\n\nMEXICO UNCONQUERED draws on Gibler's many 
 years of work in Mexico and especially his last three years of reporting 
 directly from areas in central and northern Mexico that have been 
 devastated by the impacts of forced labor migration and the violence 
 related to drug trafficking, and his reporting on social rebellions in 
 Oaxaca, Chiapas, and Guerrero. \n\n"Through research, critical analysis, 
 and superb first-hand reporting culled from years of living in Mexico, 
 Gibler shares the voices, stories, and communal dignity of the ordinary 
 Mexicans who are putting their lives at risk by challenging corrupt power 
 as they build social movements for basic rights, justice, and autonomy. An 
 exciting first book by an emerging young writer." \n-- Howard Zinn 
 \n\nDiego Osorno's 'Oaxaca Sitiada' (Grijalbo Mondadori S.A.) chronicles 
 the uprising in Oaxaca with Osorno taking us from the fighters in the 
 streets to the political and military leaders in the halls of 
 power.\n\nSponsored by Modern Times and the Center for Political 
 Education\ncenter@politicaleducation.org \n(415) 431-1918\n\n
