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

*Call to Action Across the US
Against Mexican Consulates*
CALL TO ACTION to shut down Mexican consulates, that should be circulated
- and translated into Spanish, please! - everywhere:
http://nyc.indymedia.org/en/2006/10/77827.html
For more updated news on the situation in Oaxaca in English, please check:
http://nyc.indymedia.org AND http://narconews.com
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:

Message From Richard Myers:
Brad Will, New York Documentary Filmmaker and Indymedia Reporter,
Assassinated
Right now, in this very moment, state policemen dressed in civil clothes are
attacking the barricades maintained by the Oaxacan people and their
teachers.
They are shooting them with machine guns and the teachers and the people are
defending themselves with stones and machetes. It is a real massacre
organized by the ulises ruiz administration (Oaxacan Governor).
There are many teachers hurt and at least one American reporter from New
York City (Indymedia), killed by the State police.
News stories on the killings are available on the web sites of Indymedia
