FROM OAXACA:

foto from ctv.ca Colleagues, I just received a call from the Coalition of Indigenous Teachers in Oaxaca. Some updates:

1. The government has accomplished little through its violent attacks. They have not "retaken" the center of the city. They are in the Zocalo, but the popular movement has encampments at Sto.
