DESCRIPTION:Mexican teachers have gone on strike, occupied plazas, and marched in the 
 streets in the face of police repression to protest President Enrique Peña 
 Nieto’s education “reform” – that mandates testing for students and 
 evaluations for teachers to “standardize” education. This will lead to 
 teaching to pass tests, not to learn to think, not to teach and learn 
 indigenous languages and culture, and not to teach differently according to 
 the unique needs of their students. The purpose is to fire union teachers 
 and turn education over to businesses for profit.\n\nWe demand that the 
 Mexican government –\n1. Stop the repression against the teachers and 
 their supporters immediately.\n2. Respect the labor rights and human rights 
 of the teachers and all other Mexican workers.\n3. Bargain in good faith to 
 resolve the current crisis.\n\nJoin teachers, community and union 
 supporters in a picket at the Consulate. For more information, call Allan 
 at 415-954-2763.\n\n\n
