November 16th March in Defense of Oaxaca
Between 20 and 40 assembled at the Mexican Embassy at 5:30 PM yesterday to march in an unpermitted snake march to the Mexican Consulate in support of the population in revolt in Oaxaca. In attendance were local DC activists, including some from the DC Industrial Workers of the World, the DC Anti-War Network, Resistance and Solidarity, and from a local International Socialist Organization chapter. The event was coordinated by an ad-hoc group created after the demonstration at the embassy two weeks prior called Oaxaca Solidarity Action, composed of the aforementioned groups and other DC activists, in accordance with a call to action by the Zapatista Army of National Liberation. Events to show solidarity with the people of Oaxaca will go on all over the world around November 20th in accordance with that call (www.narconews.com/Issue43/article2262.html).
