Deep Silences in the Long Night: Meditations on Zapatismo, Coloniality, and the Global Ecological Crisis An Undergraduate Thesis Submitted to the DePauw University Honor Scholar Program by Burke Stanton Greencastle, Indiana April 2016 Acknowledgments: As with any written work, this one was only possible because of the many others who helped me nurture and grow it. Thank you to my parents who taught me to think and to pursue the intrinsic good. Your conversations and contributions influence this text far more than you might at first suspect. Thank you also to the DePauw Honor Scholar program, specifically Kevin Moore, Amy Welch, and Peg Lemley; your work makes crazy and unique projects like this one possible. To my sponsor Glen Kuecker, and my committee of Paul Johnson, Alejandro Puga, and Rachel Goldberg, thank you so much for your critiques.
