When it is said too When it is told too.
In Oaxaca, in Mexico there are people who struggle every day for a vacant land, to tell of exploited workers, women, sold, held, raped. Some
tell too much and end up losing their lives.
On a large wall in the same city can come across as written this
can not be called dead those who fight for life.

E 'was found on September 24 last year, the State of Oaxaca, Mexico, the lifeless body of Sali Marcela Grace Ellier, U.S. citizen, 21, activist been committed in that area in defense of human rights and solidarity of women victims of violence and political persecution. Lately, he was dealing with political prisoners and women, wives, partners, mothers, sisters, daughters of prisoners and disappeared persons or murdered. Salli

E 'was raped before being brutally tortured and then killed. Her body, found in a rural area around San José del Pacífico, about 170 km from the city of Oaxaca, was unrecognizable and in an advanced state of decomposition. E 'was identified by a friend only by a tattoo.
Some feminists and social organizations, including the APPO, have today made a sit-in in front of the Attorney of Justice of the State of Oaxaca demanding justice and that investigations are carried out quickly and seriously.
In reality, these organizations have expressed concern that this murder could be related with the increasingly apparent repression against social movements in the area, targeted primarily at international observers. "It could be a clear message to all the people of Oaxaca and solidarity to the comrades who come from different parts of the world."
should be noted that these days is circulating the news both nationally and internationally that APPO members were accused of the murder of journalist Bradley Roland Will, on 27 October 2006 despite all evidence showing that he was killed by armed men in civilian clothes belonging to police. The APPO has categorically rejected this version of events, accusing the Federal Government to throw discerdito on the social movement, while on the other hand, the prosecutor in Oaxaca, Lizbeth Caña Cadez said that the murder of Bradley Will was organized by APPO or by groups close to "internationalize" the political and social conflict in Oaxaca.
