In this third and final installment of my dispatches from Mexico, I sat down with Kanga, my guide in Chiapas. From his reflections on a chaotic upbringing in Mexico City, to his transformational education and work with the Zapatista – Kanga is a fascinating human, and it is my honour to bring you this conversation.

Sophie Walters is a linguist, youth worker and anthropologist based out of Chiapas, Mexico.

On this episode of Elsewhere, we discuss the history of San Cristóbal de las Casas, indigenous revolution, and the importance of language in maintaining alternative thought.
