Whilst in San Cristobal, I noticed quite a lot of political graffiti. San Cristobal is in the State of Chiapas, which has been the centre of an uprising that begin in 1994. I admit that I don't know that much about it - but the graffiti made me want to investigate more.... (Immediate liberty for the political prisoners on hunger strike in 'El Amate' and 'Los Llanos')
(Inform yourself, organise yourself, fight; the revolution is just beginning.)
(Commando kills hippies) I'm not sure if these are political or just artistic, but I like them.
