To talk about the Mactumactzá Rural Normal School is to talk about an institution with a profound history in Chiapas. For decades it represented an opportunity for thousands of young people from indigenous and peasant communities who found in their classrooms the possibility of becoming teachers and transforming the reality of their peoples. To deny that legacy would be to ignore an important part of Mexican public education.
