We made it to Oaxaca. It took well over 12 hours, some confusion at the airport in Mexico City but we have gotten to Oaxaca safely. We got a taxi from Oaxaca airport, which is on the outskirts of town into the city where we are staying.
You can tell that there is allot of tension here. On the 20-minute drive from the airport we saw graffiti on practically every flat surface. Fuera URO (get out!) Fuera PFP (get out police) Muerte Ulises (Die Ulisis (the governor)) Viva APPO (Long Live APPO (Popular Assembly of the Peoples of Oaxaca). Even with the federal police presence we are told that there are still several barricades around town that the demonstrators still hold. Tomorrow should be an interesting day and I will post ASAP, hopefully with photos and maybe even a video clip.
Siempre en la lucha!
