Alexie's '98 classic,

"SMOKE SIGNALS."
|
||
Hello there, I'm prime anarchist and
|
||
I'm your tourguide for this rocky
|
||
road ice cream journey to the
|
||
center of the girth.
|
||
I this week, turn over my pub's
|
||
column to sup Marcos so that he can
|
||
say a little bit about what I call
|
||
none other than a total world "be-in."
|
||
So, without further dodo, I give 4
|
||
"ya basta's!" and three "nunca mas'"
|
||
and say, "hit it, sup..."
|
||
|
||
February 14, 1999
|
||
To: "all" [ati's words; not his]
|
||
From: SupMarcos
|
||
Ladies and Gentlemen:
|
||
So here we are once again. I am
|
||
reminded that, in the previous
|
||
letter, I left pending what I
|
||
was telling you about how the
|
||
International Consultation
|
||
and the Campaign for the Excluded
|
||
of the World was going to be
|
||
run. Here it goes:
|
||
|
||
1.- Well, first I'll tell you about
|
||
the brigades that, in the five
|
||
continents, have been accredited and
|
||
have sent us their ideas, reports, and
|
||
anxieties...
|
||
[I've taken the liberty of a big
|
||
"snip" here, he lists a gazillion
|
||
placenames, and I'd like to call
|
||
it "just about everywhere." If
|
||
any of you live in an area where
|
||
you have no idea what we're talking
|
||
about here, GET TO WORK.]
|
||
...they all know that the struggle that
|
||
is going on here is also their own,
|
||
and that is how we understand it as well.
|
||
Therefore, we extend to them a welcome.
|
||
|
||
2.- Now, let me tell you that in the
|
||
five continents, two big activities
|
||
are being prepared for the coming March.
|
||
One is the International Consultation.
|
||
Since for us (and for many like us), the
|
||
Mexicans who live abroad have rights that
|
||
must be recognized, we have thought that
|
||
the Consultation for the Recognition of
|
||
the Rights of the Indian Peoples and
|
||
For the End to the War of Extermination
|
||
should be open to participation by all
|
||
Mexicans, without it mattering where
|
||
they are found. Then, what we did was
|
||
to call an International Consultation,
|
||
in a way such that the Mexicans who live
|
||
in other countries, and are older than
|
||
12, could also give their opinions about
|
||
the four questions which will be
|
||
answered on March 21, 1999.
|
||
Not just that, but for the
|
||
International Consultation we have
|
||
decided to add a fifth question
|
||
which says:
|
||
Do you agree that Mexicans who live
|
||
abroad should be an active part in the
|
||
construction of a new Mexico and have
|
||
the right to vote in the elections?
|
||
In this way, the Mexicans who live
|
||
outside of the country will have the
|
||
opportunity to give their opinions
|
||
about the recognition of their rights
|
||
(which is denied them by the gov.)
|
||
|
||
3.- Clearly, here one asks oneself what
|
||
those who are not Mexican, but who are
|
||
interested and pledged to peace and the
|
||
recognition of the rights of all, can do
|
||
or how they can participate.
|
||
Well, one way they can participate
|
||
is in the Campaign for the Excluded of
|
||
the World (of which I will speak later),
|
||
and the other is to promote and spread
|
||
the Consultation in their countries,
|
||
organizing the installation of voting
|
||
tables, and organizing and carrying
|
||
out the computation and communication
|
||
with Mexico so that the results can be
|
||
known. In this task may participate all
|
||
the men and women, young and old of the
|
||
world, with or without organization,
|
||
without mattering their nationality,
|
||
race, color, taste, creed, size, weight,
|
||
sexual preference, or whatever other kind
|
||
of classification the powerful use to
|
||
exclude those who are different.
|
||
So that nationality will not matter,
|
||
the International Consultation will
|
||
have many spaces for participation
|
||
beyond casting votes.
|
||
|
||
4.- Yes, I understand that you're asking
|
||
what the Mexicans living abroad will do
|
||
to give their opinions about the five
|
||
questions and how we are going to know
|
||
your answers.
|
||
Well, we have decided to propose the
|
||
following options:
|
||
a).- So that the Mexicans living abroad
|
||
can give their opinions, all those
|
||
within a nation who are interested can
|
||
get in contact, and, in common accord,
|
||
organize the installation of tables
|
||
and centers of computation.
|
||
b).-These "National Coordinations" are
|
||
accredited in the Oficina de Contacto,
|
||
so that we can know in what countries
|
||
and how the International Consultation
|
||
is being organized.
|
||
c).-To send in the vote count that the
|
||
National Coordination will carry out,
|
||
you will have to get in contact with
|
||
the Oficina de Contacto.
|
||
d).-If any group of people, organization,
|
||
or group of organizations in a given country
|
||
want to organize in a different way from
|
||
the "National Coordination," there's no
|
||
problem. We just ask you to as well get
|
||
accredited with the Oficina de Contacto.
|
||
e).-In addition to going to the tables
|
||
for the Consultation, one can give
|
||
one's opinion on the five questions
|
||
by sending the answers via telephone,
|
||
fax, internet, email, satellite, boat
|
||
or paper airplane, intercontinental
|
||
rocket, carrier pigeon, or by surface,
|
||
water, or air mail. All this will
|
||
be directed to the Oficina de Contacto.
|
||
ATTENTION: ALL THE NATIONAL COORDINATIONS,
|
||
GROUPS, ORGANIZATIONS, AND PEOPLE INTERESTED
|
||
IN ORGANIZAING THE CONSULTATION IN THEIR
|
||
COUNTRY MUST GET ACCREDITED WITH THE...
|
||
OFICINA DE CONTACTO PARA LA CONSULTA.
|
||
Avenida Ignacio Allende #22-A,
|
||
Barrio San Antonio (entre Av. Alvaro
|
||
Obregn y Hermanos Dominguez).
|
||
C.P. 29250. San Cristobal de Las
|
||
Casas, Chiapas, Mexico.
|
||
Telephone and Fax:
|
||
(967) 8-10-13 and (967) 8-21-59.
|
||
|
||
Well, now I'm going to tell you a little
|
||
bit about the INTERNATIONAL CAMPAIGN
|
||
FOR THE EXCLUDED OF THE WORLD.
|
||
This mobilization campaign which we
|
||
have convoked is not only for 21mar99.
|
||
We are calling for principal actions
|
||
to be carried out on that day, when
|
||
the Consultation for the Recognition
|
||
of the Rights of the Indian Peoples
|
||
and the End to the War of Extermination
|
||
is also taking place.
|
||
Clearly, one of the ways to mobilize
|
||
for this international campaign for
|
||
the excluded of the world is to participate
|
||
in the promotion and spread of the
|
||
Consultation, in the formation of National
|
||
Coordinations, in the installation of
|
||
tables, in the count and the communication
|
||
of the results (which are not exclusively
|
||
tasks for Mexicans); but it is not the
|
||
only way.
|
||
For that day, people can organize,
|
||
for example, manifestos, letters public
|
||
and private, displays, peaceful demonstrations,
|
||
music concerts (of course, following the
|
||
example of the worthy Mexican rockers - who
|
||
are with the Consultation note by note -,
|
||
the rock groups in the whole world will echo
|
||
the zapatudo "Ya Basta!"), recitals,
|
||
assemblies, conferences, multimedia
|
||
and/or cybernetic events, etcetera.
|
||
Nothing that is civil and peaceful is
|
||
excluded, and people's imagination and
|
||
creativity will go beyond, it is sure,
|
||
anything we propose here. It is to be
|
||
a campaign for all the excluded, not
|
||
just for indigenous peoples or the
|
||
Zapatistas.
|
||
There is an act planned in Strasbourg
|
||
to demand change in the immigration
|
||
policies of European countries, and
|
||
the organizers have decided to incorporate
|
||
into their act the demands for the
|
||
recognition of the rights of the
|
||
indigenous peoples and the end
|
||
to the war of extermination.
|
||
There is also, in France, "Feu Faux
|
||
Lait." This is a theater company that is
|
||
preparing to participate in the campaign
|
||
for the excluded of the world by staging
|
||
a play in Paris and the surrounding areas.
|
||
Now you see that there are many ways
|
||
of participating. You just have to
|
||
come to agreement, organize, and act.
|
||
Well, now I'll say goodbye.
|
||
As soon as more is known,
|
||
I'll write again.
|
||
Vale.
|
||
We wish you health,
|
||
and let's not let
|
||
neoliberalism succeed in
|
||
excluding humanity.

these two bullets in however:

1) Royal Carribean Cruze Lines.

2) Methinks Cokie Robertz is the

best fascist the US Economy

has right now. Her rise to

power using NPR's money

|

Any comments or links that you

To: Musicians of the World.
|
||
From: SupMarcos
|
||
Ladies and Gentlemen!
|
||
Viejo Antonio said (that if he had
|
||
been a musician, he would have played
|
||
the blues) that music holds roads
|
||
that only the knowledgeable know how
|
||
to walk and that it, together with
|
||
dance, builds bridges that bring
|
||
closer worlds that otherwise you
|
||
wouldn't even dream about.
|
||
All this is important right now
|
||
because news has come to us of
|
||
concerts and presentations by
|
||
musicians in Mexico and other parts
|
||
of the world. The reason? The
|
||
promotion of the Consultation and
|
||
solidarity with indigenous
|
||
Mexicans and their worthy fight.
|
||
We wanted to thank all of those who
|
||
have had to do with these roads to
|
||
peace that, above all to the rhythm of
|
||
rock but not exclusively, cross the
|
||
planet from side to side.
|
||
We're not just thanking those who
|
||
compose, sing, and play. Also to the
|
||
producers, the sound engineers (is that
|
||
how you say it?), the lighting crew, the
|
||
stage hands, the drivers, the ticket
|
||
sellers, the carriers, the artistic
|
||
representatives, the owners and
|
||
administrators of the locations,
|
||
and all those who saw to (but were
|
||
nevertheless not seen) the concerts or
|
||
musical presentations (often double
|
||
volunteers: they don't receive money
|
||
or credit). Thanks to everyone.
|
||
And since we're in the "1 2 3 4,"
|
||
we want to salute all the musicians
|
||
who, in these five years, have played,
|
||
are playing, and will play for peace
|
||
with justice and dignity.
|
||
All have said stop the war. Some
|
||
have recorded disks, others participated
|
||
in concerts, or visited indigenous
|
||
communities, or spoke in favor of a just
|
||
and honorable peace, or protested against
|
||
the Acteal massacre, or gave us their
|
||
instruments as presents, or dedicated
|
||
one or more songs to the struggle of
|
||
the indigenous Mexicans.
|
||
Thanks to all these musicians who,
|
||
in Mexico and all the world, echo the
|
||
zapateado "Ya Basta!"
|
||
As soon as we win, we are going to
|
||
organize a super-mega-magna-hyper-concert
|
||
for everyone, without any time limit and
|
||
for free! (Yeah, right! The Marimba of
|
||
San Jose will end up playing alone).
|
||
Vale. Health, and dont we reach
|
||
tomorrow also with a tarar'n, tarar'n?
|
||

notes.
|
||
1. The numbers right next to each other are
|
||
thirty-second notes, but don't fret. Just
|
||
"tremelo" these notes a bit and you'll
|
||
feel for them by the second time you play
|
||
this song, I'm sure of it.
|
||
2. I chose to express this in TAB rather
|
||
than standard notation (and have little
|
||
intention of ever publishing this in
|
||
"s.n.") for the same reason Dante chose
|
||
the language he chose for publishing
|
||
"Inferno." If you have no idea what I'm
|
||
talking about please
|
||
a) go look it up
|
||
b) or delete this song from your
|
||
memory and forget you ever
|
||
knew me.
|
||
3. I will never tell the name of the person
|
||
I wrote this song for (and about) but a
|
||
clue for people who know me well -- I
|
||
bought a video-cassette from her in 1997
|
||
4. This is part 1 of about 4 parts. I will
|
||
have to come up with a way to signify
|
||
the repeats before I type the last
|
||
part. I wish to keep this easily played
|
||
but exactly as I play it in case anyone
|
||
wants to catch the exact same vibe.
|
||
5. Please
|
||
a) distribute this far and wide,
|
||
b) always keep my name with it;
|
||
c) never make money off of it.
|
||
6. Each of the chords in part 1 are played
|
||
dragging the three fingernails (m,a and
|
||
the "pinky" from the bass-most note to
|
||
the treble high in one quick snap.
|
||
7. (v) = vibrato. very demonstrative. No
|
||
other vibratos the first time through
|
||
will make these two notes "hit home"
|
||
best.
|
||
8. The following words are very important
|
||
to this song.
|
||
a) !presente!
|
||
b) basta
|
||
c) nunca mas
