Oaxaca is an example of what mobilization and cooperation among the left can look like. Your short attention span is not our problem.
Begining 6:30 a.m. November 2, 2006 at the Mexican consulate office located at the corner of N street and Merced in Fresno, CA.
We will be setting up an altar to honor those who have died fighting for human rights in Qaxaca. We will request that people not send money to Mexico until our demands are met! We will build the Central Valley Brigade in support of the stuggle in Oaxaca.
The San Joaquin Valley is home to many immigrants from Oaxaca who have contributed much to this valley. We ask for support for their compañeros who are dying for human rights in Oaxaca.
People will be available for interview throughout the day and night of November 2 and 3 and every Friday from now on until Governor Ortiz leaves office.

Please explain statement in context? Yes, Oaxaca matters and is of importance to people wherever they reside. Are you referring to the short attention span of corporate media in the U.S.? Why hasn't the U.S. corporate media spent any time on exposing the police violence in Oaxaca??
Could this be the silent genocide of neoliberal globalization? The attacks on the people of Oaxaca by police thugs as pretext to greater incursions following Calderon's welcome of Plan Puebla Pananma??
"The PPP is supposed to cost $20 billion and take 25 years. Dams and other facilities for power generation and distribution have huge financial costs, but also ecological and human costs that are far greater.
Opposition to Plan Puebla Panama is strengthening. It's as if the Zapatistas are spreading over several countries. The Indians of Chiapas, honoring the revolutionary hero Zapata and his name, declared war on the Mexican federal government and on NAFTA, taking up arms and securing their territory on January 1, 1994, the day NAFTA went into effect. The Mexican government was and still is in cahoots with the non-Indian land-grabbing class, and NAFTA was the last straw for the rebels."

Since Oaxaca is nextdoor to Chiapas, the effects of PPP on the people of Oaxaca will be severe. This current police oppression of Oaxaca's indigenous people could be pretext to greater corporate domination of Oaxaca's landspace..
CIEPAC has online info on the threats of PPP to the people of Oaxaca, Chiapas, etc..
Here's a section of CIEPAC's statement about PPP's geopolitical range and the needed response;
"Pero el espíritu de Votán Zapata sigue merodeando en todos los rincones llamando a la resistencia activa. A creer que sí hay salidas. Las regiones de Veracruz, Oaxaca, Guerrero y Chiapas en México; Huehuetenango, Petén y Xela en Guatemala, se han convertido en semilleros de procesos sociales para al región, de diagnósticos compartidos y acciones conjuntas."

For these reasons the struggle in Oaxaca isn't isolated any more than Chiapas was isolated in their respone to NAFTA several years ago. Fortunately for the rest of US people in el norte caught sleeping, the people of Oaxaca are aware and prepared to resist the police state attacks of corporate globalization..
