12 Oaxaca Solidarity Demonstration
Jaime Medina, sportswriter for the Oaxacan newspaper Noticias, came to Matamoros to get support for APPO (Asemblea Popular de los Pueblos de Oaxaca -- the Popular Assembly of Oaxacan People), which is calling for the resignation of Oaxaca Governor Ulises Ruiz and demanding that the Mexican government withdraw federal forces from that state. He spoke at the annual meeting of the Coalition for Justice in the Maquiladoras.
