Zapantera Negra is a direct connection between a major social movement in US history (the Black Panthers) and the people of Chiapas, carrying the legacy and expressions of an equally revolutionary struggle in Mexico (the Zapatistas), some thirty years apart. The subtlety and complexity of this unity, and its implications for a globally engaged arts-based activism is truly impressive.
