Focusing on the Independence, Reform, Revolution Panel of Oaxaca en la historia y en el mito, discuss the The Importance of Ricardo Flores Magón for Arturo García Bustos and others about the The Mexican Revolution, (1910-21).
= The Importance of Ricardo Flores Magón for Arturo García Bustos and others Arturo García Bustos placed a head of Ricardo Flores Magón at the same level as Benito Juárez, Margaret Maza and José Maria Morelos, indicating that for him, Ricardo Flores Magón was a major player in the history of Oaxaca and Mexico.  García Bustos was an active member of  communist and socialist groups, especially those associated with artists such as the Taller de Gráfica Popular.  His travels led him to East Germany, Cuba and Guatemala where he learned about international socialist movements including the Russian sponsored World Peace Council. So understandably a Mexican communist thought leader, born in Oaxaca, was an important subject for García Bustos. Flores also appears prominently in the famous murals of Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros and others. Over the years, various images of Flores Magón have been used to reflect the state version of moderate socialism, not the anarchist views of Flores Magón expressed above in Palabras a los Mexicanos.
