Quotes
Somewhere between the passionate analysis of Ricardo Flores Magón, and the poetic fury of Eduardo Galeano, lie these most powerful and essential communiques of the new Mexican Revolution. Possibly the most influential collection of writings upon my musical and political perspective. Zack de la Rocha of Rage Against the Machine
Our Word is Our Weapon crystallizes the passion of a rebel, the poetry of a movement, and the literary genius of indigenous Mexico. The flame that burns here is a light for literature and democracy, a dangerous fire for those in power. Martín Espada
