On Thursday 10-12-06 Al Rojas and Fernando Mendoza from the Peoples Popular Assembly of Oaxaca spoke to a packed house at the Watsonville Brown Beret office about the situation in Oaxaca. Al introduces Fernando and speaks a little of his role as a stateside organizer. Fernando tells us the history and present situation in Oaxaca, Mexico. Unfortunately, a dead battery prevented me from capturing the very beginning of Fernando's speech but it is nothing you couldn't find on the wealth of articles already here on Indybay.org.
