The reception my work has gotten here is beyond anything I dreamed, and I still I feel like I couldn’t possibly deserve it. Thank you all so much for helping to make this one of the happiest, most productive years of my life so far ♥

[VIDEO: Zapatistas yell slogans about their female candidate for president, citing the bravery of rebel Indigenous women.]
This is what a grass-roots campaign looks like in a country where politics has always been dominated by big spending, corrupt politicians.
First of all, almost nobody calls María de Jesús Patricio Martínez by her name. Everyone knows the Nahua Indigenous woman by her nickname, MariChuy.
[IMAGE: María de Jesús Patricio Martínez waves at a crowd.]
She has never worn a power suit or heels, but rather always appears in an embroidered Indigenous blouse and pants or skirt. She has no political machine, unless you count the rag-tag army of ski-masked Zapatista rebels who have pledged their support to her in the southern state of Chiapas. She’s unlikely to win Mexico’s presidency, or even get on the ballot, yet her campaign has nonetheless generated an unusual amount of enthusiasm.
Supporters from dozens of left-leaning groups in the urban sprawl of Mexico City organize coffee klatches, small concerts and neighborhood walk-arounds for the uphill battle to sign up the 866,000 voters needed by Feb. 12 to get her on next July’s presidential ballot as an independent candidate.
