Mexican Embassy Protest.? The murder of Brad Will by the Mexican State, discuss

Is there a possibility for a co-ordinated protest at the Mexican Embassy, Sunday 29th October?

Sunday will see an autonomous block on the Free Education demonstration in Central London, and I will try and help co-ordinate a possible convenance at the Mexican Embassy to protest at the slaying of Indymedia journalist Brad Will.

Is anybody else willing to help/want to co-ordinate the impromptu protest? Times? Discuss here...

Protest on Day of the Dead

29.10.2006 13:58

Coming up this week, 1st and 2nd of November, is the Day of the Dead: in Mexico the largest public festive period. The most famous celebrations are held in Oaxaca.
Maybe it would be a good idea to use that as a form of protest to be held outside the Mexican Embassy. The 2nd is the more appropriate one (All Soul's Day and day of the dead children).
Apart from lots of sweets in skeleton form they build large altars in public spaces to commemorate certain people, families and events.

Demo Thursday 2nd!

29.10.2006 16:10

Olla,

Some people from our collectives plan to hold a quickly organised demo at the embassy on this Thursday 2nd November (see above for why this date). We will have a banner, some leaflets and letters to give to the embassy demanding the recall of the Federal Preventive Police from Oaxaca and a peaceful resolution to the conflict where the peoples demands are all met and they maintain control of their state. More people would be VERY greatly appreciated since not many can make it at this short-notice, and remembrance of Brad Will and all other victims of the state would be VERY welcome.

By all means it would be symbolically good if the students march could converge on the embassy, but remember it will be closed at the weekend! Good luck with the autonomous block by the way.

Im not sure what time exactly we will be at the embassy Thursday, but please email if you are able to join us.
