« En Bas à Gauche » câest le mot dâordre que lancent les zapatistes depuis leurs territoires autonomes du Sud du Mexique en vue de construire lâAutre Campagne, La Otra Campaña, et rassembler les initiatives populaires qui naissent de la base, â par et pour les communautés â , et qui sâorganisent suivant les principes dâune gauche anti-capitaliste et anti-autoritaire.
Lâémission En Bas à Gauche répond à cet appel en créant un espace dâexpression pour toutes les guêpes insoumises qui, sans répits, critiquent et piquent, pour toutes les fourmis qui bâtissent avec patience des fourmilières assez vastes pour nos différences, Bref! pour toutes les voix dissidentes en faveur dâun changement social né En Bas à Gauche!
