We, Education Not Incarceration, want to emphasize the connection
between growing incarceration rates in the United States, which
often result from job-lessness caused by globalization of the
workforce, and the poverty and uprising against neo-liberalism
by the people of Oaxaca. In Mexico people are forced to work
and live in extreme poverty conditions, resulting from free-trade laws
that enable US corporations to extract human and natural
resources from Mexico without any protecti...

"On November 20, blockades will be set up to show the Mexican government we mean business. We are calling upon YOU to join in these blockades.

As the official investigation into the killing of Brad Will goes on, legitimate questions are being asked but it is increasingly obvious that the state government is not acting as impartial investigator, but rather as 'judge and jury,' in the words of APPO spokespeople. This week, the PGJE (Procuraduría General de Justicia del Estado: roughly equivilent to the state attorney general's office) has attempted to blame APPO and its supporters for the killing, saying that they executed him at clos...

Last week, Brad Will, a founding reporter of the New York Independent Media Center and an old friend, was killed while videotaping the mass crackdown by state police against the people's movement in Oaxaca. His killers were quickly identified by residents of the neighborhood as local officials and off-duty police, working (presumably) for the governor of Oaxaca, Ulysses Ruiz. The governor's office immediately announced that the four had been arrested, but several days later this report turned...
