Plan de Ayala

The Plan de Ayala was a revolutionary document issued in 1911 by Emiliano Zapata during the Mexican Revolution. It outlined demands for agrarian reform, calling for land redistribution to benefit rural peasants who had been dispossessed. The plan criticized the Mexican government for corruption and failure to address the needs of the poor. Zapata's motto, "Land and Freedom," emphasized the importance of social justice and agrarian rights. The plan aimed to empower farmers and promote equitable land ownership as a core principle, making it a significant influence on Mexico's social and political landscape during and after the revolution.
