Protest in Oaxaca - Yessenia Aguirre



Daniela and I ran into this during the Mexico portion of our travel seminar in Oaxaca's Zocalo. The protest was for a teacher that has been disappeared. The man reading his own poem is a friend of the disappeared teacher. The teacher's family is there too. For me this was a powerful experience and proof of the drastic measures the government takes when people start demanding there needs and rights.
