ASD members and supporters, left-progressive activist,
The crisis of repression today is in Mexico, a country increasingly engaged in the struggle for social justice.
As you may have heard (no thanks to the mainstream media) one of the most monumental grassroots movements is going on in the capital city of the state of Oaxaca, city of Oaxaca led by striking teachers and supported by broad sectors and a people's assembly... all aimed a bringing down the repressive and corrupt regime of PRI governor Ulisis Ortiz Ruiz.
Rumors of attacks by government troops and paramilitaries have swirled for the last 10 days - now it has started and off to a deadly start will the death of 4 and injury of 26 more, the jailing of leaders, etc. The deaths included the assassination of Brad Will of Indy Media New York a well-known videographer and IMC journalist. He taped his own death. Read more below.
Start calling our allies.
Sunday's demonstration is co-sponsored by members of:
Activist San Diego

We would be DEMANDING:

*Call to Action Across the US Against Mexican Consulates*
ATTN Companer@s!
This is a call to action to remember Brad, show solidarity with the
teachers and protesters of Oaxaca who are under attack, and an effort to
interrupt the invasion of Oaxaca that Fox is beginning.
On Monday morning, October 30th, Mexican consulates around the US will
attempt to open their doors, to continue business as usual. But they will
not succeed in doing so, because we will be there to stop them. At every
embassy, at every consulate, we will be there, to remember Brad, to
support the teacher's strike, to fight alongside Oaxacans in their
struggle for self-determination and autonomy from the corrupt Mexican
government. This call to action against consulates is in line with what
companer@s from the APPO have already called for earlier this week before
this shooting.
We already know of many groups who are planning for Monday, and every day
following if necessary. Please spread this call to action as wide as
possible. Spread the word: to activists, teachers, students, earth
firsters, latino social services centers, places where day laborers
gather,
anti-racist action groups, food not bombs chapters, peace and justice
organizations, Zapatista solidarity groups, anarchist people of color
chapters, people you work with, your neighbors. Copy and paste this the
whole world wide, and do so quickly. And please translate a version of
this to Spanish as well, and spread it around!
A directory of all the locations of all the Mexican consulates in the US
and Canada can be found at:
