“More than 200 protesters in New York shut down the Mexican consulate for nearly an hour this morning to call for an end to the violent repression in Oaxaca that has left at least five dead in recent days, including independent journalist Brad Will.

Will was gunned down on the outskirts of Oaxaca City Friday by a group of government-backed paramilitaries that included plain-clothes police officers, who opened fire on striking demonstrators.”
