BROTHERS And SISTERS
Receive a greeting from coraz?del Popular Ind?na Advice
of Oaxaca "Ricardo Mag Flowers? CIPO-RFM, that at the moment we
suffer once m?la represi?
We are one organizaci?que way fight pac?ca, formed by
communities Zapotecas, Mixtecas, Triquis Chatinas, Chinantecas and
Tacuates. We were born the 17 of November of 1997 to fight by
reconstituci?y frees asociaci?de the towns, autonom? justice,
our rights like towns, ecolog? the women, the human rights, etc.
But from the beginning the governments say that we are violent
and guerrilla like pretext to repress with polic?y paramilitary groups
to us and to stop the organizaci?independiente.
By that raz?el 18 of April of 1998 stopped us to 106 people,
disappearing and torturing by d?a Ra?Gatica to that since then they
have wanted to assassinate. The 1 of January of 2002 kidnapped
and tortured to 46 brothers ours of San Isidro the Reformation,
Yagallo and Yaviche. The 11 of August of the same one a?en San
Isidro Aloapam hurt 36 women, two who were pregnant lose to his you
drink. The 24 of May of 2003 destroy the house of Ra?Gatica and
they leave death threats him; the 12 of June, m?de 1000 polic?
with dogs and gases, to the union of the 3 powers and to us the
government palace of and 45 dependency evacuate to us of. The 18
of July right in the center of the city become to try to assassinate
to Ra?Gatica. The 13 of September polic? civilian dresses
try to us to evacuate of the government palace. The 16 of
October paramilitary group CROCUT, directed To stop Toimil and Jacobo
Ch?z shoots against an assembly that was made in Sta. Ma. Yaviche,
leaves 1 dead and 9 bullet wounds. The 27 of October and 20 of
November return to threaten of death our brother, thus finally we
decided that it leaves Oaxaca, as a form to avoid that they kill it.
Until today none of the people in charge these aggressions,
although are not?cas, has been punished.
But the communities tambi?en we resisted with our autogestivos
projects. We must panader, we produce caf?miel, artesan?
of palm, wool and algod? We have a secondary military
preparatory school and communitarian aut?mas, one communitarian radio
in Oaxaca, a cooperative of services, that is, while we protested
constructing.
Reason why we have platicado to them we come to ask for its
support, to see as it is possible to be made to join the fights, the
pavement and terracer? the donkeys with the cars and the people
of the communities with those of the buildings. We are
soliciing:
1) Support to pay unfolding and to collect companies of
organizations and personalities
2) Establecer an agreement of colaboraci?con the union
to print propaganda and to have a lugarcito where to be when we come
to meetings, managements or protests. Tambi?para that the
students of the social service of the university can go to our
communities to work in the secondary one or preparatory and them ense?
very otherwise and we share our form to them of life, or
caravans become of solidarity, medica, of construcci?o of work.
The thing is that acompa?os us then.
3) Some form of comercializaci?de our products, caf?palma,
honey, artesan, etc.
4) Difundan ours problem?ca at all costs that is possible to
them and does that the government feels to engage in a dialog to take
care of problem?ca m?urgente:
a) Freedom to Oliverio Neri L?z and punishment to the
paramilitary ones To stop Toimil, Jacobo Chavez and dem?que massacreed
our brothers in Yaviche, as?omo garant? for the life of
Ra?Gatica.
b) Atenci?a the social demands of the communities of the
CIPO-RFM and stops to represi?de the same ones.
Insurances that his coraz?les took to extend its hand for us, we
thank for his atenci?
By reconstituci?y it frees asociaci?de the towns
