On Thursday 10-12-06 Al Rojas and Fernando Mendoza from the Peoples Popular Assembly of Oaxaca spoke to a packed house at the Watsonville Brown Beret office about the situation in Oaxaca.

Locally, Prop 88 has the support of the San Francisco Bay Guardian – whose endorsement carries enormous weight...
