§March for Oaxaca, Sat., July 2, 3pm, La Plazita, Watsonville
by SCC Driscoll's Boycott Support Committee
The state of Oaxaca, home for many of the farmworkers in Washington and Baja California behind the Driscoll's boycott, has been in turmoil in recent weeks. The radical teachers' union CNTE is leading a brave struggle in Oaxaca against the government's new neo-liberal education policies.

The Mexican state has responded with ferocious brutality. Many have been killed and others have been arrested or disappeared. Demonstrations in support of the Oaxacan people have sprung up all over Mexico and many cities around the world. Meanwhile, Mexican President Peña Nieto was greeted with open arms by his US and Canadian counterparts at the "Three Amigos" summit in Ottawa this week.

On Saturday, July 2, at 3pm in Watsonville, march in solidarity with our sisters and brothers in Oaxaca, starting at the Civic Plaza (La Plazita, 358 Main St.) and ending at Ramsey Park (1301 Main St.).

Hope to see you there!
