Letter from UC Berkeley scholars to President Fox in repudiation of repression in Oaxaca, Mexico

Tagged: , , ,

“Mr. President Fox,

As citizens of Mexico and the World, concerned about social justice and the respect of human rights, we respectfully request that you and your administration resolve the current conflict in Oaxaca through peaceful and rational means.

From California, we watch the events in Oaxaca with deep concern. We are worried by the multiple recent attacks by armed groups on the barricades of the Popular Assembly of the People of Oaxaca; we are disturbed by the current contradictory repression by the Preventive Federal Police and the military presence in the state to silence those who protest against repression and the conditions of state terror maintained by the government of Oaxaca. “
