Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger's Newsmagazine,
|
Over 100 San Diegans attended a six-hour Movement-Building Workshop sponsored by the San Diego Coalition for Peace and Justice November 18 in Balboa Park. Much of the discussion revolved around the long-term ambitions of the Right to use the crisis atmosphere after September 11 to smash civil liberties and silence Left-wing dissent once and for all. Also discussed were racist or religiously-motivated attacks against Arab-Americans and Muslim Americans, and what the intense patriotic fervor sparked by September 11 symbolized by U.S. flag displays means for the future of anti-war activism in this country.

|
Días despues del asesinato de Digna Ochoa, abogada por los derechos humanos en México, la Procuraduría de Derechos Humanos de Baja California ha recibido una amenaza pública de represión. Así, el clima de agresiones contra los grupos de derechos humanos en México durante el gobierno de Vicente Fox ha llegado a la frontera de las Californias. Estos eventos y otros se consideran por varios observadores como posible señal de un aumento deliberado de la represión, viniendo así durante un período cuando la atención pública mundial está tan fijada en las acciones militares estadunidenses en Afganistán.

Repression Spreads Against Human Rights Workers
Enrique Dávalos (tr. by editor),
|
Days after the assassination on October 20 of Digna Ochoa, the internationally prominent Mexican human rights lawyer, the Human Rights Commission for Baja California received a public threat of repression.

A number of observers worry that the timing of these attacks could signify a new escalation of repression, occurring as they do while much of world public attention is focused on the US military actions in Afghanistan. Here is an update on the situation by Enrique Dávalos of the Globalphobic Network.
