He said he could
solve it in 15 minutes, and it looks like Vicente Fox is making good on his boast. I first got interested in the Zapatistas when I copy edited and layed out Ricardo Dominguez’s article in CTHEORY almost 5 years ago now. But I’m still pretty skeptical – things like anti-indigenous actions by a state are mostly institutional things, and it’s not clear that a political shift can really get to the root of the problem. At that, however, a political shift away from the PRI in Mexico is a bit more than switching governing parties in the US or Canada – it is a bit closer to the sort of systemic change that might really mean this thing could be solved in a reasonable manner.
The beginning of winter
is really beautiful up North at Mont-Tremblant, where I went on the weekend. There’s not much snow yet, and at lower elevations it’s pretty bare. Saturday night, though, a cloud rested about halfway up the mountain. Sunday morning when I awoke to bright sunny skies, I looked across to the mountain and there was a straight line – above it was white: the ski runs, the trees, everything. Below it was as before – fall grey tree bark, grass and rocks, and black-looking evergreens. Of course my camera was at home in my work bag.
