Sixteenth Part: Bertold Brecht, the Cumbias and Non-existence.
Zapatista young men and women practicing a dance-theater-cumbiero for the celebration of the 30 years of the beginning of the war against oblivion. Yes, we don’t understand how it is possible either, if they say that all the Zapatista youth went north and there are no longer any young people – nor Zapatistas in general – Misterio. Hey? The cumbiero theater thing? Well, Don Durito (DD for legal issues) said it well: “cumbia is the continuation of politics by other means.” Images courtesy of the Tercios Compas, copyleft December 2023. Music: fragments of cumbias from the Zapatista sonideros. Race track! One step forward, one step back. Hip. Turn. Now on the side. Turn. Repeat. Vooooy! The rust, hey, the rust. A polka? Or a lying down corrido? I say, to support anthropologists. Are you wearing my hat and cowboy boots?! Don’t I tell you? Do something.
