DESCRIPTION:Oaxaca Today, Peace Without Justice: Neoliberalism and Indigenous 
 Resistance\n(Oaxaca Hoy, Paz Sin Justica: Neoliberalismo y Resistancia 
 Indigina)\n\nMonday, April 7th 7-9 pm\n\nMulti Media Workshop:\nvideo, 
 presentation & discussion\n\nThis multi-media workshop/presentation will 
 include scene selections from three films: "El Enemigo Común" (2005), "El 
 Machete" (2007) and "Paz Sin Justicia" (2008) in order to illustrate 
 neoliberal atrocities and community based resistance to them in Oaxaca, 
 Mexico.\n\nThe first film documents paramilitary activity in Oaxaca from 
 2000-2005, leading up to the arrival of Ulises Ruiz Ortiz, Oaxaca's current 
 governor. The second film has been filmed and edited by indigenous women 
 and youth from communities in Oaxaca, during the winter of 2007, and 
 documents a more profound look at the day to day struggles for land, water, 
 transportation, culture, dignity, justice, liberty, and peace.\n\nThe final 
 film will be a Bay Area premier of "Paz Sin Justicia," a 41 minute film by 
 the Committee in Defense of the Rights of the People - CODEP, examines what 
 Oaxaca looks like today in 2008, and what it really means for Oaxaca to 
 return to normal after the 2006 uprising. Corruption, institutionalized 
 repression, and economic slavery are the standard through which, a weak 
 government attempts to hold itself together, and stay in 
 power.\n\nVideos/workshop presented by Simón Sedillo a community based 
 human rights film-maker has spent the last 6 years documenting and teaching 
 community based video in indigenous communities in Oaxaca, in immigrant 
 communities in the US, and with youth of color across the US.\n\nThe event 
 will also feature a report back by a local SF organizer about his recent 2 
 month trip to Oaxaca working with CODEP and Casa Chapulin. He will provide 
 action steps people in the US can take to support Oaxaca and stop Bush's 
 new proposal, the repressive "Plan Mexico".\n\n
