Since May 2006 the state of
Oaxaca has been the scene of an extraordinary community-teacher movement
against fraudulently elected governor Ulises Ruiz and the repression he
unleashed. Teachers have been on strike and 1.5 million people (of a
population of 3.7 million, over 70% Indigenous) have marched to defend their
rights. Widespread human rights abuses, including assassinations,
disappearances, rape, torture, and arbitrary detention, have been reported
by several international organisations. Two more people were beaten to
death by police on 16 July and many were arrested...
Oaxaca:
Free David Venegas Reyes!
Please write to demand the release of David Venegas Reyes, a councillor of
the Asamblea Popular de los Pueblos de Oaxaca (APPO), Mexico, who has been
under arrest since 13 April 2007.
We
demand justice! We demand the arrest and dismissal from office
of Domingo Santiago
President of the Council of Chilchota, Michoacán, México!
