Some recent news:
22 June: Governor Ulises paid people (estimates vary, around 10,000) to attend his "peace march" - demanding the teachers return to their schools. The march was scheduled to confront the teachers in the occupied town centre, however, the paid marchers had a change of heart and were too afraid to show there faces in el centro. The teachers union announced that their primary demand now is the removal of Governor Ulises from office, as this is what the people of Oaxaca desire. (There was a general assembly of Oaxaqueños to decide this).
June 23: Members of other unions strike today: medical workers, bureaucrats, electricians, social services, and more. The teachers closed all the town banks for the whole day. A solidarity march from the Oaxaca city barrio of Santa Rosario is scheduled to take place. Around the city many people are carrying radios tuned into Radio Planton. We hear that 40 buses of riot police are headed for the centre of town and the teachers there. So the march is diverted and people get into vehicles and convoy to the town centre. The police are nowhere to be seen but all along the route are thousands of people cheering the convoy. In the zocalo speeches are made, another mega march is planned for next week. The voices of the people in the zocalo and along the convoy are all saying the same thing: "Ulises OUT!".
that's all for now...
