With Alexandra Halkin, Chiapas Media Project; John Gibler, Independent Journalist & Human Rights Fellow for Global Rights Watch; Representative of the NYC Independent Center; In response to a state-wide work stoppage in Oaxaca, Mexico, plainclothes police unleashed a bloody massacre last Friday. 3 people are confirmed dead, with scores wounded in the shooting. Among the dead is Brad Will, a video journalist with the NYC Independent Media Center. The killings are now being used as a pretext by the Mexican federal government to launch an military incursion into Oaxaca City by troops now assembling outside the City. On 6-14 Oaxaca's governor Ulises Ruiz Ortiz sent in state police to break a teachers' strike that was camped out in the center of Oaxaca City.This further ignited people’s anger throughout the State who reinforced the teachers' encampment in Oaxaca City. They are calling for the resignation of Gov. Ruiz. In the last 5 months, at least 12 people have been killed by State police and paramilitary forces.
