Un Encuentro Para Libertad: Chicana Artivistas making art with the Zapatistas, 1997

How did a creative workshop across borders and across languages further a revolution? How did music, one-act plays, poems, murals and more connect humans more thoroughly than anything else? And what can we learn from the Chicana art scene in East LA in the 90s and their alliance with the indigenous Zapatistas in Mexico about how to make art as resistance today and tomorrow?
