After the fall of Spain in 1939, exiled members of the CNT and FAI arrived in Mexico, reinvigorating the scene for a time. They published Tierra y Libertad, built new organizations, and kept the memory and the fight alive. A few anarchist impulses managed to emerge within the Mexican Communist Party into the early 1930s as well, at least according to Kirkshafer.

President Calles ended up founding what became the Institutional Revolutionary Party. A contradiction if I ever heard it. and they basically ran the show in Mexico for 71 years straight, from 1929 to 2000. Their administration co-created the conditions that would birth the New Zapatismos in 1994.

They're not anarchists, as they have been very clear to state, but maybe they'll get a two-parter in the future, going into their history in more depth. The history of anarchism in Mexico has been quite the story, I must say. And with that, we've reached the end of that classical history. Its modern history is still being written, still being told. But this is the end of our exploration for now.

Not just of Mexico's anarchist history, but of this entire series of anarchism in Latin America. I joked about making an episode about Quebec's anarchism scene, but that may remain a joke for now. We've journeyed a very long way together, from the Andes to Buenos Aires to Montevideo to Sao Paulo to all over.

We saw how these anarchic and anarchish instincts met new ideas, genuinely and intentionally anarchist ideas, coming from Proudhon, Bakunin, and Kropotkin, brought over in pamphlets and in the minds of exiles and immigrants. In Mexico, those forces took on a revolutionary scale. Roda Canati planted the seed. Magรณn amplified its voice.

The workers, the peasants, the students, they all gave it their all, their fire. And even when that fire was smothered by reformists, by nationalists, by reactionaries, by capitalists, by the bullets and the bribe, it never truly went out.
