DESCRIPTION:JOHN ROSS will speak on:   Which Way for Latin America's Indians? - the 
 Evo/Zapatista Divide     Introductory remarks by TIM REDMOND, Managing 
 editor of the San Francisco Bay Guardian.     Friday, February 10th at 7 pm 
  New College Cultural Center, 766 Valencia Street, SF     
 Poet/correspondent/author/activist John Ross will speak on "Which Way for 
 Latin America's Indians – the Evo/Zapatista Divide" at the New College 
 Cultural Center, 766 Valencia Street on Friday February 10th.     Ross, who 
 has been traveling with the Zapatistas in Mexico, will also report back on 
 their "Other Campaign", an anti-electoral effort featuring Subcomandante 
 Marcos that is shadowing Mexico's 2006 presidential elections.     John 
 Ross, an independent muckraker, has been reporting from the underbelly of 
 Latin America for the better part of four decades. His work appears 
 regularly in the San Francisco Bay Guardian, Noticias Aliadas (Lima), the 
 Texas Observer, Counterpunch (on line), and La Jornada in Mexico City.  
 Ross is the author of three award-winning volumes on the Zapatista 
 rebellion which he has covered since its early hours and is currently 
 working on a fourth, "Making Another World Possible – Zapatista 
 Chronicles 2000-2006" to be published by Nationbooks this fall.     In 
 2004, Ross spent several weeks in Bolivia interviewing that majority Indian 
 nation's first indigenous president Evo Morales, and the February 10th talk 
 takes its cue from Ross's recent Bay Guardian profile, "Evo Presidente!"  
 Tim Redmond, managing editor of the San Francisco Bay Guardian and a 
 long-time co-conspirator, will introduce Ross at the New College event.     
 "Which Way for Latin America's Indians?" is sponsored by the New College 
 Media Studies Program, Global Exchange,  Media Alliance, Chiapas Support 
 Committee, AK Press.  There is a $5 dollar donation at the door but no one 
 will be turned away for lack of funds.  The fireworks get underway at 7 PM. 
    Call Jon Garfield at 415-437-3425 for further information.     \n
