 Civic Center BART\n\n“A number of thick files contain the details of 
 human rights abuses committed in the southern Mexican state of Oaxaca, 
 where a social uprising lasting more than six months was put down by force 
 by police and illegal armed groups, leaving 20 people dead, 349 under 
 arrest and 370 injured.”\n\n"If it hadn't been for the international and 
 national pressure added to the accusations by human rights organizations, 
 the repression would have been even more violent, and there would still be 
 dozens of people under arrest; of that we are certain," \n\n--Adrián 
 Ramírez, president of the non-governmental Mexican League for the Defense 
 of Human Rights (LIMEDDHH) \n\nBay Area activist David Solnit is charged 
 with felony vandalism for allegedly throwing red paint on the entrance to 
 the San Francisco Mexican Consulate on Halloween night 2006, during a 
 series of international vigils, protests and actions against the human 
 rights emergency in Oaxaca. Mexico.

 few days before, schoolteacher Emilio Alfonso Fabián, Oaxaca resident 
 Eudocia Olivera Díaz and independent journalist and community activist 
 Brad Will were shot and killed on the barricades of Oaxaca on October 27, 
 2006 by paramilitary vigilantes connected to the state. \n\nDavid’s 
 felony charge is a draconian response to peaceful protest and presents a 
 grave threat to free speech. It is a waste of thousands of dollars of 
 limited City resources. Now more than ever, it is crucial for the Bay Area 
 to continue its tradition as a place where dissenting voices and opinions 
 are not silenced. Please attend the Pre-trial to show support.\n\nThis week 
 Brad Will’s family is visiting Mexico demanding justice for Brad, for 
 other journalists in Mexico and for the people of Oaxaca. \n

 cycle of impunity related to crimes against journalists and human rights 
 violations in Mexico must end," said Craig Will, Brad's older 
 brother.\n\n\n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2007/03/24/18382543.php
